I’m a storyteller with over twenty years of experience spanning design, strategic communications, and interpretive storytelling. I help turn ideas into purposeful narratives that connect people with places, knowledge, and each other across exhibitions, visitor experiences, digital platforms, and campaigns. My work brings together strategy, narrative design, and creative delivery, supported by strong technical skills in research, design, and digital tools.
I thrive in collaborative, community-focused environments and believe in the power of storytelling to deepen understanding, spark curiosity, and inspire meaningful change.
Outside of work, you’ll usually find me in the garden, spending time with family, or listening to paleoanthropology podcasts. I’m endlessly curious and always learning, drawing inspiration from both ancient history and everyday life. Like growing plants, my career has been shaped by seasons of experimentation, growth, and joy.
