A bit about me

Read on to find out more about my comms work, my love of adventures, and hopefully we'll meet in real life soon!

Hi, I’m Katie.

I’m an Edinburgh-based communications specialist with a healthy appetite for adventure (and vegetables). Thanks for visiting my site!

I’m passionate about creating high impact communications that help people and organisations like yours, do more good in the world.

Having spent the last 12 years working in agency, in-house and as a freelance comms & marketing consultant for organisations and businesses in physical activity, the outdoors and healthy eating, I have broad experience that I’ve found a huge asset when working with small organisations.

I bring strategic thinking, creative ideas, and first-class delivery, in flexible and affordable formats that work seamlessly alongside busy CEOs, founders and small teams. I’m passionate about a many things including:

Bringing out the best in others. I love working with organisations and individuals to get clear on how they want to be seen and create confident communications that amplifies their value online and in the real world.  

Social impact. I particularly love working with organisations that aim to create positive change in communities. From a decade of working in this space, I am convinced that empowered, connected and active communities hold the key to happiness and prosperity.

Human-centred approach. The most effective communications are ones created from the point of view of the human. I love supporting clients to get to know their audiences better, to get in to their shoes, and to design more impactful communications.

Adventure. I once cycled a lap of the planet on a bicycle (read more about that here), and I’m partial to running or cycling up hills! I take an adventurous spirit with me into my work too. I’m always open to exploring new ideas, I love challenging myself and clients to dream big, be bold and have courage.

I’m also an avid (plant-based) cook and baker, so if you have any awesome vegan recipes then please do share!

If any of this resonates with you, I’d love to connect. If you’re looking for comms support but don’t know where to start, then please book a call and we can have an open chat. I’m also open to chats and looking to collaborate with other freelancers / agencies.

Yours adventurously,

Katie
