What does it mean to you to be named a Walpole 2020 Power List winner?  

It is such an inspiring group of people and I am incredibly grateful and honoured to be included.

Why do you think you were named on the List this year?

Again, I’m so grateful for being named on this list. 2020 really accelerated the demands on digital, community and inspiring new experiences: areas that I am hugely passionate about. Here at Burberry always try to push the boundaries for our consumers in these spaces, and this year I hope we have made meaningful inroads with our continued evolution of social drops; our introduction of the first social retail store; and our disruptive fashion show experience in Twitch.
