I work across research, facilitation, learning and writing, often around questions involving organisations, communities, culture, learning and inclusion.

I am well suited to complex questions where something needs researching, exploring, explaining or discussing before the way forward becomes clear.

My background includes academic research, libraries and public services, digital work, organisational learning, leadership development and adult education.

If you have a question or project you think might suit the way I work, get in touch.
