His first assignment was assisting the Creative Director in the design and install of Madonna’s Mayfair townhouse. He drove vans, lugged furniture, shadowed the team and learned on the job. It was a game-changing experience that led to a 25-year-strong career and the culmination of Angel O’Donnell.
