A creative, dynamic and award-winning strategist, writer and trainer with nearly 30 years’ experience in journalism, publishing and communications.
A journalist by training I have flourished during the many and diverse waves of change that have buffeted and disrupted the media industry, from the rise of digital and social media to the onset of AI.
I have expertise across content – from writing (both journalism and research) to content strategy and audience outreach and engagement – through to the wider business challenges facing the media and membership sectors.
Currently offer consultancy, run editorial projects, carry out research (both audience and wider market/trends) as well as training and mentoring to enhance content teams' capabilities. I'm diligent, detail-focused and thrive working in team environments - and most importantly am proven in delivering great results for clients.
