Professional Experience
I’m an integrated strategic healthcare communications specialist. Health is my passion and I’m lucky my career has led me to explore so many areas. Earlier on, from nutrition and gyms to OTC medicines and high-street health retail and then delving further and deeper into pharma, biopharma and biotech to medical devices and technologies. My experience spans corporate reputation, disease education, advocacy, patient and community engagement, stakeholder relations through to brand communications and lifecycle management. Over my career I’ve worked with the likes of Pfizer, J&J, Merck, Novartis, AbbVie, Sanofi, Novo Nordisk, Takeda and Roche as well as with smaller innovative companies.
Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.

How'd you get here?
After an extended gap-year post University (where I studied Biological Sciences), I took a job in the health team of a local PR agency. I knew nothing about comms, but I knew that I could translate science into stories and talk to anyone about anything related to health. 25 years later and I’m still doing exactly that. A proud recipient of multiple awards for creative and corporate campaigning, I’m passionate about putting people at the heart of healthcare.
