I am a Storyteller and a Spoken-Word specialist, with a basket of skills I have collected along my unconventional journey.

As a lifelong student of the human condition, I have at various times donned the boots of a soldier, and the latex gloves of a medical technologist. I have documented and reported from the frontlines of a society in transition and have trodden the stages of theatres across the globe.

Having honed my skills as a professional actor, radio journalist  and screenwriter, I went on to study linguistics and to conduct post-graduate research into the neurological foundations of social cognition and empathy. 

The spoken word is an effective tool that can be deployed through various modalities to have a profound impact on those who hear it. I have learned that embodied speech has the capacity to connect and engage, to inspire and motivate, to create and transform and, ultimately, to heal.
