A degree in industrial design gave Cat an eye for transforming large screens into a real digital experience. She now leads Ocean Labs, a team dedicated to creating innovative and Cannes Lions winning campaigns including Look At Me for Women’s Aid, which saw an abused woman’s bruises heal the more passers-by stopped to look at her.
