I'm offering
I am a copywriter/editor with 5+ years experience spanning a range of industry contexts – from the academic to the commercial, from small charities to big tech.
This means I’ve worked with all kinds of words: knocking out taglines on a tight turnaround; taking my sweet time finessing 10k-word reports; penning VO scripts where every. Word. Counts.

Saatchi & Saatchi x PRETTYBIRD.
Working with Saatchi (alongside creative agency PRETTYBIRD) in preparation for their annual event at Cannes Lions, the New Creators Showcase. Research & development was focussed on storytelling, and the changes to storytelling as occasioned by new digital platforms. (A shift reflected in the showcase's focus shift from the old format of 'new directors', to the new format of 'new creators'.)
