Two seconds.


That’s how long you’ll glance at this before moving on.


Strong writing makes the difference between a prospective client reading on, or moving on.


For out-of-the-box thinking combined with tried and true writing methods I am your one-stop shop for copywriting, editing, technical writing, and marketing, all with an International flair.


Why Use My Services?

  1. BulletI have a strong teaching and training background that serves me well in aiding corporate training facilities create fluent, easy to use manuals.

  2. BulletA knowledge of writing for the international market. Each country has its own special ‘lingo’ even those that speak the same language. Words that are fine in the USA are offensive in other countries. (‘Fanny’, for example!)

  3. BulletA flair for taking on the ‘flavour’ of the company/client.

  4. BulletAn ability to take complex content and make it accessible for all to read and understand.


About Me:

I was born in England, raised in South Africa, currently residing in the great state of Texas. Raised by two parents who would never allow bad grammar cross my lips, I discovered an innate love for the intricacies of the English language.


That fueled my desire to work as a teacher, but after graduating from Pretoria College of Education, I realised my true love lay in the elucidation of words.


Since 1997 (after a five year stint as a corporate trainer and technical writer) I have written for everyone from large corporations to individuals, helping them communicate their message clearly and succinctly.
