About Me

I’ve been a freelance journalist and copywriter since 1999, specialising in writing about technology, business and education for a wide range of clients including national newspapers, B2B magazines and corporates. I pride myself on writing clear, lively copy to wordcount and deadline.

Publications and work in the past few months include:

• A report for the Economist Intelligence Unit on talent management
• Editing New Digest, an NCT publication for its specialist workers
• Features in the Financial Times on the use of biometrics in healthcare and digital pens in veterinary care
• A feature for The Guardian on face scanners in schools
• Editing an issue of Patent World
• Articles for Microsoft's public sector website
• Social media guides for Barclays and The Body Shop

My qualifications include a Ph.D. from Aston Business School and a postgraduate certificate in journalism from the London School of Printing.
