All About Me

Who am I?

I’m a museum exhibition, attraction and interpretation consultant based in the UK, but work on projects all over the world. My background is in environmental science and communication, but over the course of my career I have worked on many heritage and commercial projects. I love uncovering the content needs of clients and then helping design teams create amazing experiences.

If I were to pin down what I’m really good at, it’s working at the interface of exhibition teams, where disciplines meet. I can load myself up on content in double quick time, then happily wax lyrical about it with designers, artists, scientists and planners, encouraging creative visitor experiences. I can then feed this into wider teams, looking at strategy for projects of all scales.

On the more belt and braces side of things, I have managed designers and interpretation teams, with all the challenges and wonderful experiences that goes with it. I’ve also managed many projects, of various scales, from permanent and temporary exhibitions, to art installations and print design.
