Over the last 15 years I've worked with companies to create campaigns that cut across TV, web, print and video. I pride myself on being an adaptable and creative writer, able to produce content in different styles and formats as per strict tone of voice and optimisation guidelines. I create concepts for companies that are disruptive and diverting with content that chops through the chaff and finds headspace when others can't.
My skills in this field include ideation for content development and campaign strategy, copy, editing and proofreading original web content, social media management, marketing campaigns and business development, producing articles, blogs, newsletters, thought pieces, white papers and other forms of online content, editing copy produced by others and I've also written the odd wedding speech here and there. How can I help you?

I was approached to update areas of Gousto's website pitching my content to a target market of females with families and young professionals in their 30’s who have busy schedules and little time to food shop, yet still enjoy cooking and consider family time and healthy eating to be a very important part of their lives. The content is warm and conversational to align with Gousto’s overall tone of voice whilst keeping a sense of how seriously Gousto cares about providing quality, local sourcing and zero waste.
