Doddz began as street artist Professor Pigment, creating murals that earned enough to pay off his parents' mortgage while he studied at university. He later joined Steven Bartlett's brand team before founding DIME, a creative studio building story-led experiences through emerging technologies for clients including Disney, Nike, and Sony.
As an ambassador for Meta and Snapchat, Doddz translates complex technologies into narratives that connect with global audiences. His work spans physical exhibitions in London, Manchester, and Shanghai, as well as virtual showcases across India and the United States. Most recently, he served as the leading digital voice in the UK for the Queen Elizabeth Memorial Committee. He also developed The Pollution Piano, a virtual installation that uses AI to generate original compositions based on the air around you.
A member of Mensa, Doddz has achieved all of this while navigating the challenges of dyslexia, beginning his school life in special education classes. Rather than viewing this as a barrier, he's used it as a source of resilience, ingenuity, and divergent thinking. His journey stands as a testament to the idea that obstacles can fuel greatness, and that creativity thrives in unexpected places.
Through his talks, Doddz helps organisations understand how creativity, technology, and narrative combine to capture attention in crowded markets. His 15 years building experiences for global brands informs his practical insights for transforming abstract ideas into tangible results that audiences remember and share.
