About me

My experience

I’m a communications strategist, writer and editor

I collaborate with business leaders and research communities to create value-driven, evidence-based content and campaigns that leave a lasting impact.

I’ve worked in media and communications for over 20 years. My career began in a regional newspaper and I’ve worked in magazines, agencies and in-house. Clients have ranged from global corporations to small businesses, national government agencies to local councils, public and private universities, research institutions, charities, artists and sports professionals.

My work has covered the full communications spectrum: strategic planning; campaign development and delivery; internal communications; event planning and management; writing, producing and editing business and consumer publications; business and personal case studies; ghostwritten comment pieces, thought leaders and specialist features; marketing and UX design; independent journalism and much more.

I’ve managed international communications projects with multiple partners for research projects funded by the European Commission and the German Ministry of Finance. My published work has appeared in globally recognised publications, specialist journals and magazines and national newspapers. 

I completed a law degree in the UK in 2014 and, although I never trained to practise, it’s valuable in helping me to identify and share the prescient aspects of scientific and academic research. 

My values

I live and work with integrity. My approach is to get to the heart of who you are and what you do so I can accurately portray your identity and values. I identify the audience or market that will welcome and appreciate what you offer and connect with them using targeted, relevant material.  I believe communications activities should be fact-based, deliver benefit and add value for all parties involved. 

The services described on this website are the areas I specialise in. As a freelance operator, I’m limited in the amount of work I can accept. I only agree to do work that I know I can deliver well, and I always aim to exceed expectations. I work with trusted partners to help me deliver a full communications package, from brand development to websites and events.  

My specialisms

My specialisms are research, academia and leadership, but I work with organisations and individuals from a variety of sectors.

I work on a strategic level with international research projects, liaising with scientific coordinators and steering committees. I manage all aspects of communications and ensure all deliverable targets are met.

I work with academics and universities to help make research and academic thinking accessible to a wider audience.

I work with leaders and business experts to raise profiles, share best practice and stimulate debate. 

I’m also an independent journalist and writer.
