Who am I, and what do I do?
My decade-long career has seen my writing take me in directions I could never have predicted.
I’ve written social posts for global tech brands. Blogs for startups. Even copy to accompany promotional VR headsets for a satellite company.
You name it, I’ve written it. Web copy, scripts, white papers, and pretty much everything in between. I’m also comfortable pitching and presenting to clients.
Oh, and I’ve written long-form features on sport, finance, lifestyle and mental health for some of my favourite websites and publications, including BBC.co.uk, FourFourTwo, When Saturday Comes Sifted and the i Paper.
But whatever the brief, my aim is the same: to write accessibly yet authoritatively, cutting through the noise so your message comes through loud and clear. I know what works, and I know how to write it.
Why work with me?
My adaptability and easy-going nature are as important as the quality of my work.
Having worked on such varied projects over the last decade, I have honed my writing style into something which can fit any job, of any size, in any industry. My work is natural and conversational in tone, informing and entertaining, never overly-complicated or patronising to the audience.
Agencies work with me because I am unflappable, even when faced with the tightest of deadlines.
(did I mention I’ve never missed a deadline? I certainly don’t intend to start now…)
And my direct clients use me because I am able to produce agency-quality work with the value for money, flexibility and personal touch that working on my own allows. I’m based in London but have worked with companies based in all corners of the UK, as well as Europe and Australia.
So if you’re an agency that requires reliable, quality content, or a company looking to build a brand or tell your story in a new way, I’d love to hear from you.
