History
I have worked as an editor, journalist, writer and designer.
As a journalist I began on construction industry magazines, covering mainly environment, transport and planning. This was followed by six years in communications and public relations in Scottish local government. I then moved to the IT industry, editing, writing, producing and designing software documentation for US, Canadian and Icelandic customers.
From 1999-2008 at the John Muir Trust, the Scottish charity which is Britain's main advocate of wild land, I edited, designed and produced the twice-yearly Journal, and annual reports, factsheets and newsletters.
Since 1999 I've been a freelance, and I'm a member of Writers and Photographers unLimited.
I'm assistant editor of London Digest, a research bulletin for the Institute of Education's London Education Research Unit. I edit MA dissertations and design opera programmes.
Activities
I walk the hills and ski regularly, in Scotland and abroad, and have worked as a ski instructor on snow and artificial slopes. I swim and surf on British beaches and am a recreational cyclist.
