I conceptualize, write and edit content to engage policymakers, donors, practitioners and the general public. 

I've worked on award-winning communications campaigns and products on issues including children’s rights, disability, migration and displacement, gender-based violence and sexual and reproductive health and rights. I have extensive experience with formats including interactive websites and data dashboards, news stories, reports and briefs.
