I’m a writer, content creator and communications specialist, with experience in radio journalism, writing, podcasting and public relations.

I’ve worked for two commercial radio stations, a production company creating programmes for BBC Radio Scotland, a global public transport corporation, and an independent media company, as well as spending time in the water industry and in horticulture.

As a freelance writer and communications consultant, I undertake a variety of regular projects, temporary gigs and short-term contracts for small and large businesses, charities and arts organisations.

I’m part of the team at Transform Creative, a virtual agency which reinvests its profits into Transform Scotland‘s campaign for a greener, healthier Scotland.

I’m also a member of the Garden Media Guild, the Society of Authors and the Hardy Plant Society.

I enjoy spending time in nature, so I walk in the woods as often as I can and am usually found in the garden when I have any spare time. I have a qualification in horticulture (RHS L2 Principles and Practices of Horticulture) and I’m a regular garden volunteer at Hospitalfield in Arbroath and the University of Dundee Botanic Garden.

Here are my superstrengths, values and interests…

🦸‍♀️ Accomplished journalist and content creator: with a passion for clear and honest communications and a love of horticulture and the natural world

✍🏻 Wordsmith: I love crafting words and images to inform and engage communities, inspire action and promote trust

🎙️ Podcaster: Creator, presenter and producer of the first podcast to focus on Scottish gardening

🤓 Media nerd: with a special enthusiasm for magazines, podcasts & photography

⚡ Energised: by strategic and creative thinking; idea development; research and learning; connecting people and building relationships

🌼 Happiest: pottering in the garden – sowing seeds, growing dahlias, photographing flowers, chatting to my chickens
