The story behind me and my work has many twists and turns. Begining my career in IT and learning how to turn complex technology into simple soltuions, which people enjoy using. 

Then moving on to writing, media, events and speaking. Traveling the world sharing new ideas for how to make work more creative. 

To starting out on my own, launching a marketing agency, and software startup and an events businesses. 

And then of course, running TEDxBrighton, of the largest and longest running TEDx events in Europe. 

To deep dive into this story, you can read my book MAKE IT - How to work with Clarity, Confidence and Creativity, available on Amazon right now.  

In 2013, I started volunteering with TEDxBrighton. In 2016, I was invited to take over the organisation, to manage the volunteer team and curate our annual event.

Over the next decade, I helped grow TEDxBrighton into one of the largest and longest-running TEDx events in Europe, welcoming more than 120 speakers and over 10,000 audience members.

My approach to curating has always focused on reflecting the most inspiring and meaningful parts of a community back onto itself through ideas and storytelling

In 2024, I was invited by TED to help create the My Big Idea series. Working alongside TED’s curators and producers, we produced a special Brighton event for 500+ people, featuring speakers selected through a national idea search.

Today, I continue supporting the TEDx community through projects including TEDxWorthing and TEDxRotterdam, helping shape new large-scale events for their communities.
