I train, edit and write for international organizations.
Good writing is the glue – without it, things fall apart.
For 25 years I was a journalist, editing for newspapers in New Zealand, London and Paris.
In Paris, working on the opinion pages at the International Herald Tribune, I saw global agencies struggle to tell their stories, despite their crucial roles.
Intrigued by this disconnect, in 2010 I became a trainer, editor, and writer for organizations that are trying to make the world a better place.
From 2010 to 2014 I was a staff member at UNESCO, where I edited the UN’s annual international education survey, the Global Education Monitoring Report.
Since 2014, I've led more than 400 writing workshops, mostly in Europe and Africa, for UN agencies, NGOs, think tanks and other international groups. I edit major reports for the same kinds of organization.
I’m also a poet. I've twice won New Zealand's national award for a poetry collection.
