Creative Consultant
What I do
Described as a ‘creative catalyst’ and an ‘octopus with a periscope’ I love seeking out information and collaborating to bring new projects to life.
Clients tell me they value my creativity, care and talent for connecting people and ideas.
With over 30 years of experience in diverse roles and sectors I have shaped my career through curiosity, a desire to support others and determination to make things happen.
I bring a unique blend of skills, interests and networks to my work, offering creative solutions in three main ways
- Insight, vision & opportunity
- Inspiration, support & encouragement
- Events, creative workshops & conversations
Recent clients and collaborations include
Creative Basildon, Chelmsford Cathedral, Chelmsford City Council, University of Essex, Patch.Work, University of Bristol, Unilever Research and Development, London School of Architecture, SR Mortimer and Wild Arts
About me
A seasoned non-linear careerist I love an adventure and am always open to a fresh challenge.
I have been part of pioneering initiatives, led local, national and global teams, set up my own business and worked independently as a freelancer. From physical scientists to community activists, funeral directors, product designers, professors, artists, architects and brand managers I have built credibility and trusting relationships with a wide variety of people.
This postcard by Catalan artist Salvado sent to me in the 1980's has become a touchstone for my work journey. It translates as:
“If you’re very sure where you are going, you will definitely save yourself many steps…but you’ll miss out on a lot of scenery”
I have seen a lot of scenery! And I draw on the wide range of insights, interests, experiences and relationships I have gained along the way.
Insight, support and events that bring ideas to life
