I am a freelance business writer, available for work.

​

I write interviews, features, and create reports for fintech companies and banks. 

​

Currently editor of Forward, a magazine devoted to scientific breakthroughs in quantum computing, pharma, and materials discovery. I was interim communications director for Thought Machine, a UK fintech now valued at $2.6bn, and I write for FintechOS, winner of the Europas Award for fintech of the year.

 

As a journalist I've written columns for the Daily Telegraph, covered business for The Guardian, and contributed to over 40 magazines. 

​

I've put together reports for HSBC, Allen & Overy, all the Big Four accountants, ICAEW, ACCA, E.ON, and the Mayor of London, to name just a few. A specialism of mine is surveys: if you are thinking of commissioning a poll or report then feel free to ask me to review it: I'll make sure you get the right results.

 

My background is: former editor of EuroBusiness magazine, PPA Business Writer of the Year.  I studied history at Trinity College Dublin, graduating with a first class degree, and won a Government of Ireland postgrad scholarship. I enjoy travelling, and speak French and Italian.

​

I'm pretty versatile. I can turn an interview with a CEO into a blog or column, help fintech companies explain their product, or write technical white papers on the economics of cloud native core banking.

​

I'm always plain speaking, enthusiastic, and able to bring 20+ years of experience to ensure whatever we work on is a success.
