I wear many proverbial hats, though all my work is built on a foundation of storytelling – it’s a word that gets overused, but it’s valuable nonetheless. Communicating, informing, and conjuring a different way of seeing things. Some of the ways I do this is through writing – be it narrative editorial features or marketing content – or through guiding and polishing other writers’ words into copy that makes an impact.
I’m keen to work with people and brands that think beyond the linear, and don’t get hamstrung by stay-in-the-box thinking. The greatest creativity comes from a more adaptable approach. I bring a diverse skillset, innate resourcefulness, eye for detail, and a natural curiosity to all that I do.
That’s my story… what’s yours?
