Previous roles include Partner at Penta Group (formerly Hume Brophy); Senior Consultant at Battenhall; EMEA Director of Creative Strategy, Digital and Social Media at FleishmanHillard; European Managing Director at The Dachis Group; Director of Digital at Edelman; and Editor of the BBC Blogs.

I’ve also been a Visiting Fellow of Journalism at City University (London) and of Stanford’s Cyberlaw Program.

I hold an MA in Sociology, MPhil in Communication Studies and Pg Dip in Law.
