About Me
Recent freelancer. I've specialised in media relations, for the longest period in the construction industry and have grown quite an addressbook! Latterly decided to experience working in an agency where my portfolio of sectors was expanded somewhat - got involved with Technology B2B, travel, more construction (from a different perspective) and some interesting consumer PR for a mystery shopping company with a huge cache of highstreet clients.
Wanted to change lifestyle, be a little more flexible and work from home where possible. I am developing my business, by creating a good network of contacts of likeminded professionals so we can work together in future.
