About Anthony

As the leader and founder on the ground in London, Anthony runs the day-to-day operations of StudioHawk UK.  Anthony has built the foundation of London from just himself in 2019 to almost 20 SEO experts over the last 6 years. He ensures everything runs smoothly and executes on the sales, vision, marketing and finance side of StudioHawk UK. Running an agency isn't easy; many hats and many plates are spinning!

One of Anthony’s favourite quotes is “I LIKE SEO”.

Anthony doesn’t like talking big fluff words to anyone or confusing SEO jargon; he gets the job done with results and no time-wasting. We do one thing and one thing well at StudioHawk, and that's SEO.

Anthony does nothing but SEO there is nothing bigger in life than SEO, so he does nothing else. There isn’t a world without SEO; SEO is all that matters. He also loves spending time with his wife, Julia, his family, and friends when he's home, enjoying fancy cocktails, travelling, and learning about how the world works.
