Meet our team of Goblins
Zay
Founder, CEO & Event Organiser
Zay is a massive nerd with a special interest in fantasy, sci-fi and anime. Her love of fantasy films led her to also fall in love with puppets and the magical worlds created by Jim Henson & Brian Froud. Zay has worked in senior leadership and event management for 10 years, and founded Thames Con back in 2017. She's passionate about delivering quality, fan focused events. This will be her third officially Licenced Jim Henson Company event.

Tobias
Host & Content Curator
Tobias escaped into fantasy and sci-fi from a very early age---and has never really returned! Thra, Fantasia and the Twelve Colonies were all worlds he dreamed of living in, full of fantastical creatures and heroic characters he wished to meet. After pursuing an education in the design industry, Tobias is now Host & Content Creator for Thames Con: since 2020 he has hosted events, interviewed film & TV personalities and continues to seek out behind the scenes secrets about the imaginative worlds he loves.

Ben
Videographer
Ben specialises in creative content from design, graphics, production and visual effects through Bad Mosquito Films. Ben has worked with Thames Con on numerous projects doing everything from designing licenced merchandise to creating stunning event Trailers. But the main reason Zay keeps Ben around is so she has another super geek to debate movie and TV shows with.
