I'm a task-oriented individual who thrives on deadlines.

I am currently based in Tbilisi in the Republic of Georgia and am working for a management consulting company that specialises in international development projects.

Now and then I have some extra time up my sleeve.

I enjoy well-defined project-based work, i.e. collaborating with a web developer to design and build a new website, writing original content for a publication, creating short promotional videos and proofing/editing reports.

My writing and editing skills were honed through working as a newspaper journalist for five years, followed by two years’ freelancing.

My journalistic work has been published by Monocle, BBC, New Zealand Geographic, North & South, The Spinoff, Wilderness Magazine, New Zealand Skier, The Wireless/RNZ and various Fairfax titles.

My communications work has been for Environment Canterbury, ChristchurchNZ, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade and Prime Consulting International Ltd.
