About me

Curious by nature. Strategic by practice. Grounded in integrity.From the UK to Aotearoa New Zealand, I’ve worked across hospitality, food manufacturing, and the primary industries, through to brand, content, and communications strategy. It’s been a multidisciplinary path — anything but linear, and all the richer for it.Along the way, I’ve managed a cocktail bar, worked the pastry section, developed new food products for national retailers, led creative projects, managed global brands, edited national publications, and shaped communications strategies across sectors that value impact, equity, and connection.Today, I work with clients doing good things — for people, place, and planet.
