Organisations like yours do awesome work. But too often, telling people about that work is left ’til last. That’s where I come in.
Sole trader or start-up, charity or listed company – I help get your message across, whatever your business model.
I grew up scribbling in notebooks about the plants, animals, and fungi I encountered in the Midlands countryside, and decided a Biology degree would mean I could save the planet. I quickly realised I hated doing science, but liked writing about it.
Volunteering at science festivals, editing a paper, and interning with PR agencies and marketing teams solidified a new aim: communications. Now I get to help elevate the positive work others are doing.
When you choose to work with a freelancer, you’re choosing to invest in a person. That’s why I’m upfront about who I am. No smoke-and-mirrors “we at RB Digital!” here.
And every freelancer is different. Here’s why I might be the right choice for you:
I used to do the nomad thing, living in all sorts of places (Tenerife, Maderia, Normandy). In 2024, I bought a house in Exeter.
Nearly all of my travel is in Europe (#sustainability) so there’s no need to worry about timezones. I’m often away from Devon for weeks at a time, either visiting family, petsitting for friends, or enjoying coliving abroad.
You know social media’s important, but don’t know where to start
Partnerships trying to avoid bias or groupthink in their messaging
Neglecting content-heavy resources like blogs and reports
Needing an interim in-house comms or marketing resource
Professionals who just need a helping hand (or two)
You can do social, but you’d rather focus on your zone of genius
I think there’s a lot to be said for sitting back, absorbing what’s happening, and thinking things through – and then taking action.
I aim to present information in the clearest form possible. And I promise never to use technical speak to make myself sound fancy.
As someone with health needs, accessibility isn’t an afterthought for me. I always encourage clients to share their requirements.
Marketing gets a bad rap for a reason. No dodgy tactics here. Plus – from reporting to NDAs – I take compliance seriously.
The question ‘how do I want to freelance’ soon turns into ‘how do I want to live my life?’
Here are some of the practical ways I bring my personal beliefs into business.
I plan time off work many months in advance, allowing myself and my clients plenty of advance notice for project planning.
Dates may change, but I am currently unavailable (either booked by clients, or out of office for a well-earned break) on the following dates:
