Brighton and Hove, England, United Kingdom
I am an independent consultant, working to design and facilitate learning and strategy processes with people working for social change, whether that's activists, researchers, people working in service delivery, NGOs, governments, or foundations. I work internationally, with a focus on climate change and an increasing emphasis on systems approaches.
Out of work, I am an activist, a school governor, a parent, a sea swimmer and a proud resident of Brighton and Hove in the UK. I want to work more in my local community and see DEAL as a way of combining professional experience with my passion for helping Brighton deliver on its climate and social justice commitments.
In my work, I use a range of tools and approaches to help people think deeply and strategically about their work and to catalyse change. I love using drawing and play to help explore the big stuff and bring in systems perspectives. I work across sectors, spanning boundaries and sharing insights and approaches between them.
