About

I'm a business journalist turned strategist, with a mission to accelerate the rise of women's sport. During my decade+ as a journalist, I covered creative business, startups, technology, venture capital, private equity and finance, with a particular focus on how the flow of money impacts opportunities for women and marginalized groups. I've developed award-winning newsletters and digital strategy that cut through the online noise and built/retained audiences into the millions. Originally from Minnesota, I now split my time between Margate and London. Outside of work, I play football (the soccer kind) and boulder. Skills: Editorial strategy, content strategy, and brand strategy. Reporting and editing to high standard under tight deadlines. Newsletter writing, curation and product development. Commissioning and managing freelancers and early-career employees. Deep knowledge across topics in small business, leveraged finance, technology and economics.
