Consulting

Over the past decade, I have partnered with leading universities, foundations, publishers, and research centres to unlock the power of digital technology for intellectual engagement and cultural enrichment. My consulting services help organisations:

  • Strategically navigate the rise of generative AI with guidance grounded in real-world implementation and a commitment to ethics. I build institutional capacity through training, policy development, and piloting high-impact AI initiatives aligned with your mission.
  • Transform online content, events, and experiences into intellectually vibrant ecosystems where scholarly and public communities thrive. I combine content strategy, digital platform expertise, and insight into building engaged networks.
  • Equip researchers, educators, and communicators with coaching and training to amplify their work through generative AI, social media, and leading-edge digital engagement tactics.
  • Design initiatives that foster intellectual community, spurring collaboration and discovery by connecting stakeholders within and beyond your organisation.

My independent consulting practice allows me to bring specialised expertise to clients ranging from universities and learned societies to funders and publishers. I welcome the opportunity to explore how my services could advance your goals. Please reach out to discuss your needs and how I can help. 

Please note I undertake this work in a private capacity unconnected to my employer.
