An independent writer and editorial adviser

I have roots in journalism and a career spanning publishing, B2B editorial and strategic communications. Throughout, my work has centred on finding compelling stories within complex subjects and communicating them with clarity and authority.

Curiosity has taken me across fields ranging from energy, agriculture and finance to technology, travel and sustainable development. I bring an editorial eye, business insight and an instinct for the questions that matter to every assignment.

I currently support the EU–Africa Business Forum Facility, producing research-led publications and content on private-sector investment, Global Gateway initiatives and EU–Africa business partnerships.

Delve In, my independent editorial platform, is where I explore original ideas and follow the people and projects shaping business, technology and sustainable growth.

On a personal note

Outside work, I can usually be found working on the third draft of my novel, practising Tai Chi, walking, gardening, or exploring new places. You can also read the story behind the kingfisher branding.
