Do you need effective strategy and content but have limited time to produce it?

Or need to speak both field and donor? SME and user?


I can help you do that.

Let’s face it – writing probably isn’t your main job.

You’re a busy researcher, practitioner, business owner, or marketer, and you’ve got lots to do and limited hours in the day.

And you need communications that explain the impacts of a project to donors, or demonstrate how a product improves your customers’ own work functions, translate a practice from one context to another, or maybe defining a policy position. Communications that help you get the job done.

My job is putting all the right words in the right places to help your readers get your message quickly and easily – even when the message is complex – to help you achieve your communication goals with as little impact as possible on your already packed schedule as possible.

 

That’s why I’m here.

 

Who I help:

I work with agencies, INGOS, NGO, multi-laterals, consultants, private and public companies, utility providers, research organizations, building sustainable health, development, risk reduction, and regenerative technologies – and the agencies that support them.
