ABOUT

Hello there. Salut! I'm a bilingual Communications Strategist with a love for creative production and storytelling.

 

I've worked across 10 industries and 4 countries - from newsrooms and design studios to council offices. Different environments, same knack: I figure out what needs to come to life, bring the right people

together and make it happen (plus points if everyone's smiling by the end).

My second passion? Donning my word wizard cloak, and writing some cool stories.

Have a dander around my website to see what I've been up to.

 

Fancy a chat? Get in touch!
