Alongside my work as a media practitioner, I am an experienced trainer and consultant teaching a wide range of technical, journalistic and creative skills to clients including the BBC Academy, BBC Media Action, IMG, Baeur Media, Global, the International Maritime Organization and Clarkson’s.

I work with both organisations and individuals offering one-off training, long term support, one-to-one mentoring and coaching in the UK and abroad, both in person and online.

I have also worked with a number of non-profit organisations as an advisor on their creative and campaign strategies and have undertaken troubleshooting projects for international broadcaster as well as consulting on specific productions and projects including working in sensitive environments.

I always welcome an email or call to discuss specific needs.
