Freelance biographer, ghostwriter, journalist and editor with a record of success across broadsheet journalism, academic publishing and digital media, creating engaging stories and quality manuscripts.
My recent experience has involved translating complex and technical concepts into accessible, compelling, story-driven text for a range of audiences.
I've worked as a journalist for the Independent and Guardian, and since 2008 have authored or ghostwritten several books, mostly in the area of business and technology history.
I'm comfortable structuring and drafting long projects but enjoy the challenges of case study and customer success story writing.
My industry acumen, perceptive interview style, attention to detail and exceptional research speed enable me to work across multi-level sources, extract fresh insights, and deliver compelling narrative-driven text to tight deadlines and budgets, adding value at strategic and operational levels.
Specialist areas
Corporate history, biography, case studies and customer success stories, features and profiles. I've written extensively about entrepreneurs, Silicon Valley and electronics history, small business and family business, jazz, fiction and literature. I welcome new challenges!
