Tell me a little bit about yourself. I sort of grew up surrounded by marketing. My father is in sales and marketing and many of my childhood memories involve visiting him when he was at trade shows, or seeing him producing brochures, tenders and pitches.

Tell me a little bit about yourself. I’m Angela Prentner-Smith, I founded This is Milk originally in 2013, with Gillian Souter, but due to life events we paused the venture and I restarted it in 2015 after I had my baby and came off maternity leave. I’m now the Managing Director, and work with Nicky…
What’s your background/career path? I’ve always wanted to do something in communications, but growing up pre-internet, the job I’m doing now didn’t even exist when I was at school! After doing a degree in Communications Studies with Spanish, I got a job as a PA with an independent radio production company in Cambridge and Manchester…

It’s been difficult to pinpoint an exact percentage, but speaking to my network, Robert Craven of The Directors Centre, and The Wow Company, it sits somewhere between 12% to 27%.
