I work with organisations and individuals to create innovative solutions, enhance user experience and develop new ideas and projects. I clearly communicate concepts. My approach is interdisciplinary, cross sector and brings a little fun to the formal.

Clients include: The Watershed Arts Trust, UWE University, Bath Spa University, The Musicians Union.

I communicate clearly, engage and inspire. Providing agile solutions, connecting the missing links and building bridges between people, ideas and organisations.

A solid foundation in research and evidence is central to my work. Fostering inclusivity with specialisms in: gender equity, accessibilty and neurodiversity. I bring drive, passion and clarity to every project.

Focused on creativity, sustainability, social cohesion, economy and access. I co-create strong socially cohesive communities.

I connect the dots and fit projects and people together.

Politics and Playfulness

Policy, planning, organisational process and user Experience : serious questions often need playful process. I inform planning, policy and organisational change with informal discussion, workshop and user experience pathways.

Background

A background in media, education and ecology organisations has given me a rich cultural palette to draw on. I’ve advised organisations, retail outlets, studios, arts and cultural centres. This has given me a deep insight into spaces, online experience, environment, placemaking, community and people.

People and Places.

My perspective is across environment, place, tools and people. Questioning how they best fit together to bring a people centred and connected heart to projects.

From cultural organisations in arts, music and tech innovation to education centres to grass roots and nature based soft skills learning with insights into holistic health and luxury to cutting edge media and production studios I have a sharp insight into markets and cross sector connections. My broad portfolio gives me a unique perspective and far reaching network making the unlikely possible. I can elevate and drive creative projects to completion from conception to community.

Facilitation

Spaces, people, play and creativity – How environments are used culturally and creatively is a focus to my work. I have facilitated workshops in creativity, art, dance, music and writing in green spaces and indoors spaces too. I love to run creative adventurous workshops, educate and inspire. I bring people together in focus groups and workshops and facilitate creativity, play, encouraging an atmosphere of deep thinking and exploration.

People, tech and futures thinking is an area of expertise, bringing focus to human application of modern tools in a crafty artful way.
