I love staying in touch to see whether the objective brought about the change you needed—or if it created unexpected added value.
Previous Work
I love working across different sectors and supporting people doing great things—big and small. I now support organisations of all sizes and love working with a variety of clients.
I support purposeful leadership using the power of clear, strategic communication to influence systems and drive lasting change.
This has shaped a 15-year career in public sector communications — from delivering equalities-led public health campaigns to leading a formal consultation for Renfrewshire and designing their engagement strategy in line with government guidelines. I also spent five years delivering political communications and Parliamentary responses, providing strategic support to senior leaders, including the CEO of the UK’s largest health board.
Motivated to explore the creative potential of communications, I transitioned into the TV industry, producing arts content for the BBC. This opened the door to leading live-stream production for The New York Times Climate Hub at COP26 — a role that evolved into supporting global climate events in Egypt and London. Alongside this, I also served as account manager for the UK’s Climate Change Committee, deepening my work at the intersection of storytelling, strategy, and sustainability.

“I worked on production of the music video After the Party with Catherine (she as producer, me as director). Catherine is a dream to work with. Organised, very communicative, extremely creative. She is confident in pushing her own fantastic ideas, and is equally as happy to pick up the concepts of other people on the team and to help everyone to run with them.
Catherine runs the show in a way that gets the best out of everyone, and the very best for the piece. She is huge asset for any production.”
