Hello! I’m a 📢 public relations professional, and I love the 🌍 open web, 🎭 open culture, and 🏙️ open cities.

A passion for communicating

My work is centred on making “expert” topics understandable, helping to connect people and ideas. 


Making the complicated simple

Building foundations

I build the foundations for strong public and non-profit sector communication.

Open systems

I care about open systems that contribute to society, whether that be software, art, or the places we live.
