about me
I'm a copywriter, content producer, and creative communications contractor based between London and Paris, with over 10-years of experience in the social impact, climate change, and creative sectors.
I like to craft direct, impactful texts that work to enhance the narrative of my projects. I spend a lot of time thinking about the internet and digital technology as mediums and modes of social change.
My experience in campaigning and mobilisation, alongside my work as an artist and producer, helps to orient my perspective as a communicator around ideas of solidarity, community, and action.
Beyond my work I like to write and produce electronic music, walk in nature, direct short films, dance under cover of darkness, draft half-finished works of speculative fiction, jump on last-minute trains across the continent, and cook really spicy Indian food.
climate change and social impact work
I've spent the majority of my career working with NGOs, startups, non-profits, and charities within the climate change and social impact worlds. My main areas of expertise including copywriting, sustainability writing, campaigning, and content strategy / production.
My areas of interest fall broadly within climate justice, economic justice, and migrant's rights. My clients and partners include NGOs and nonprofit orgs such as Greenpeace, Global Witness, SumOfUs (now Ekō), the European Commission, and the Mozilla Foundation.
creative and written work
Within my artistic practices I've worked as a musician, composer, producer, essayist, and filmmaker. I'm interested in speculative futures, critical theory, left-wing social and political movements, architecture and design, science comms, and the interaction of technology, economics, and culture. My clients and partners including Bleep.com, Penguin Random House, Paris Fashion Week, Matador Records, and The Museum of London.
I also have essay publications with Repeater Books, Punctum Books, and Zero Books, which are available to view via my portfolio page.
