Experience is the author of authoritative writing. That's why I focus on subjects where I can say "been there, done that".

As a full-time freelance writer and consultant based in the south of England, I help organisations with their marketing and social media strategies. My passion is for excellence in communication - creating, clear and coherent messages that people understand.

My life includes being a husband, father and active member of my local community in England. My workplace experience has involved managing teams of professionals, establishing new business units and providing consulting services. I've developed and delivered plenty training courses and presentations around IT and communication.

I've worked with and for a range of businesses, from start-ups to international corporations, and I've travelled widely around the world. I am also a qualified finance professional (aka an accountant).

Added to that I'm a keen amateur photographer and most of the photos I use on my articles are my own work.

New experiences broaden my horizons, which is why I seek them out. They inspire me to write as I continue to gain a better understanding of myself and the wonderfully diverse world that I share with you.
