A course by Layla Boyd
Project Manager and Producer Layla Boyd grew up in a creative family who were always running late, something which inspired her love of organization at a young age. After studying for a BA in illustration in Falmouth University, and starting her career in sales, she was able to turn that passion into a job she loves in project management.
Layla specializes in managing a variety of creative projects from TV adverts to billboard campaigns. She has worked for clients including Compare the Market, Head & Shoulders, Olay, and Mars.
