About me
I have worked as a journalist, an advisory consultant and in-house development officer. I can plug into a project at any stage of progress and enjoy working closely with teams or solo. I have end-to-end experience having taken local and international strategic communications projects from planning and strategy right through to implementation and delivery. I am keen to work alongside unique teams and leaders to help solve the bigger social questions and improve the lives of others through communications. I have extensive experience in people management, financial communications, investor communications, leadership, critical thinking, content strategy, business development, project management, crowdfunding, social media content and strategy, communications plan budgeting and NGO fundraising.
Projects
- The Beckley Foundation - Annual ReportI was tasked with compiling and updating the Beckley Foundation's annual report to ensure it could be used as a fundraising tool as well as an essential piece of collateral. The aim was to make it an easy to read brochure that would make readers aware of the Foundation's fascinating work in scientific research, psychedelics and mental health.
- The State of Open Banking 2019A US Tech client entering the UK market needed to position themselves as fully engaged and entrenched in the nuanced issues facing the UK financial services sector. By taking on one of the more challenging topics in UK Financial Services (Open Banking), and using a research-led industry report aimed at high profile decision-makers, we not only brought them immediate credibility but also new business leads and significant media interest.
