I'm an award-winning freelance journalist, content consultant and copywriter, with 16 years' experience.
About me
I cover all aspects of the built environment, engineering, sustainability and technological innovation.
At a time when the world needs radical solutions to climate breakdown and when rapidly-advancing AI is re-writing the rulebook for business and jobs, the need for accurate and insightful journalism has never been greater.My skill is in pinpointing original ideas and transforming often technical subject matter into concise and engaging copy, in the form of features, news, white papers, blogs, thought leadership articles.
