Four beautiful rural homes profiled in a new book for Gestalten

Since 2008 I've worked with
a diverse mix of individual
practitioners, design consultancies,
cultural institutions,
brands and businesses to
create recognition through
communication.

A committed
and imaginative
collaborator, my work
has been determined by an
unwavering interest in
language, place and
contemporary
culture.

I believe that
words can be a
source of inspiration
and connection, and
a practical tool to
define ambition
and purpose. I
bring this belief
to a wide variety of
projects – from writing and
editing, to strategy and business
development.

Skills and
experience

Writing, brand
strategy, positioning,
naming, tone of
voice, verbal identity,
editorial strategy,
research, interviews,
workshop facilitation,
proofreading and
editing.
