What I do

I am Editor-at-Large of LondonLovesBusiness.com, a major new financial website launching in September 2011.

In addition to this role I remain an active freelance journalist, writing for publications such as Real Business, Financial Management and The Marketer, and I am open to commissions.

Over the last ten years I've written a huge amount on the following subjects:

• Entrepreneurs who've been fabulously successful.
• Mobile applications for business.
• Homeworking.
• New technologies for businesses.
• Venture capital, AIM & Plus.
• Politics, including small business regulation, the department for business and quangos.
• Web tools and tricks for small firms.

Career

I am the former editor of EuroBusiness magazine and deputy editor of Real Business magazine, and have written for The Guardian, LQ, Real FD, RBS Business Agenda, NatWest's Business Sense, the CBI's magazine, Business Voice and Smarta.com.

My specialism is interviewing entrepreneurs. Memorable interviews include John Caudwell on the day he banked £2.4bn and the "kitchen gangster" Vance Miller. I cover politics, and have interviewed David Cameron, Alistair Darling, the President of Estonia, the prime minister of Lithuania and countless MPs and MEPs, Nobel Prize winning economist Joseph Stiglitz and the investor Prince Al-Waleed.

In 2006 I won the PPA Business Writer of the Year award.
