Services offered

I am a freelance communications professional with over twenty years of experience in the

 English communication  in particular. I specialise in researching, writing, editing, designing and supervising the publication of all types of communication materials: from project concepts, proposals and reports to brochures, flyers, newsletters, posters, books and manuals. I also copy write and proofread online content including tweets, Facebook posts, feature articles, blogs, scripts and storyboards for today’s versatile media platforms.

My core skills are:

Research, writing, editing, end‐editing and proofreading in English

Design, layout and production supervision of print and digital media

Adapting technical information for general, and/or non‐specialist audiences

Organising information for presentation and publication across all media platforms

Curating info-data for websites and social media engagement

After assessing the scope of each proposed assignment, I am happy to discuss the terms of engagement, either as payment per piece or an hourly/daily rate. As a freelancer, I am flexible but particularly time- and deadline-conscious. I am also able to travel at short notice and to work in multi-cultural and multi-disciplinary environments.
