Traveller. Investigator. Writer. Editor.<\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Four words that describe who I am. A seasoned traveller with a love of learning about new places, people and cultures. I take those experiences and distil them into words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was also a police investigator for many years, where I needed to both look and see. I have an eye for the small details. I make sure my words say what I mean in a way that makes them accessible to more people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m relaxed and approachable. I crave to make the written words of myself and others the best they can be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
