I am a freelance consultant based in Edinburgh, Scotland, who specialises in research, heritage project delivery and community engagement.

I use creative, community-led approaches to understand and share the experiences and perspectives of people from diverse life backgrounds. Across projects spanning academic research, museums & heritage, and rural development contexts, I deliver informative and impactful outcomes on-time and within budget. Examples of services that I provide include:

• Delivery of community-based heritage projects involving oral history, archival research, exhibition curation or digital communication

• Encouraging constructive dialogue through stakeholder engagement and community canvassing

• Gathering information through data collection and analysis

• Communication and outreach aimed at encouraging local participation or spreading awareness
