You can benefit from our expertise in English.
Dedicated to helping business people to use the best English for business, my well-honed services help individuals and corporate improve their communications.
With lifelong experience as a writer, editor and businessman, I am uniquely placed to make your words work harder for your business.
A graduate of Oxford University with a degree in Modern History and an MA, I worked for 10 years on The Times newspaper three of those as Sports Editor. I am a published author.
In the last 25 years I have crafted copy and produced publications for blue-chip British businesses and for SMEs in various sectors, such as motor manufacturing, property, perfume, sport, television, travel, and utilities.
I have long experience of looking after people in many different business sectors, latterly as Communications Director of Navigate, a full service marketing communications company. I ensure that work is delivered with high quality and accuracy, and on time, on budget and to the client’s complete satisfaction.
A lifelong devotee of the English language in its many colourful forms, my passions include writing, reading, speaking, listening, sport, publications, the cinema and the theatre.
