Journalism, PR, advertising, content.
I’ve worked in journalism, PR, advertising, and content marketing right around the world. Most of the time, I’ve helped communicate about big confusing topics like tech, finance, medicine, genomics, and accounting. But I’ve also marketed less esoteric things like toothpaste, ballet and pig effluent (to worm farms and vineyards, if you must know).
Content
8 years as content marketing lead for a global B2B SaaS company in the accounting and fintech space. I created, commissioned or edited upper-funnel content for myriad business audiences – from startups to companies in every industry you can think of.
Advertising + creative
4 years as a copywriter and associate creative director for a life science and medical devices marketing agency (USA). This included assignments such as writing taglines, naming products, concepting ad campaigns, writing ads and writing/editing websites.
PR + comms
7 years as a proactive PR consultant in scientific fields of agriculture, food production, and R&D (in Australia) and pharmaceuticals and medicine (Ireland). I did the usual media releases and events plus ghost-writing columns for industry leaders and clinical articles for consultant physicians.
Blogging + shenanigans
For fun, I’ve created a couple of blogs:
‘The Twelfth Pub’ was a short serial of a round-the-world pub crawl.
‘Wait of a Nation’ charted the suffocating pressure of a home world cup for the New Zealand rugby team in 2011.
Being timely, both blogs are discontinued, however they achieved breakthrough mainstream media coverage in outlets such as the BBC, South China Morning Post, Sydney Morning Herald, Sport 24, The Irish Independent and more.
