About me

People and organisations are like Doctor Who’s TARDIS – they may look small on the outside, but there’s so much to discover inside.

As a Knowledge Herder, my role is to listen, guide, research, curate, write, edit, design and project manage; most importantly, I make it easy to create your Chronicle.

I have interviewed hundreds of people in many different contexts over the years so I am practiced in drawing out stories in a respectful, accurate and low-stress way.   Additionally, having worked across business, community, science, technology and innovation, and with families, I have a broad knowledge base and quickly come up to speed with new topics.    
 
I work with others as needed for co-writing, proofreading, design, photography, and providing technical and cultural input.
 
On a personal note, I live with my partner on a small property in Taranaki.  We are developing our place regeneratively with the aim of producing delicious, nutrient-dense heritage food without external inputs, and in a way that actively enhances the health and vitality of our little piece of paradise and all who live here.
