ADVENTURERS
WRITERS. STORYTELLERS.
WRITERS. STORYTELLERS.
Hypervigilant former journalists, with just a touch of anxiety — well, perhaps more than just a touch. But we still like to explore and experiment — we'll often get burnt for our efforts. But it sure makes for some colourful writing.
IF YOU KNEW US...
She started out as an idealistic journalist in South Africa. And when that idealism waned, she moved to the Middle East and dabbled in everything content-related.
From conference producer to podcast host — she has worn many hats. But her favourite thing to be called is still: writer. She now channels what little idealism stubbornly lingers on into her writing.
She's been a reporter. She has worked sleepless shifts at a newspaper, a news channel, and paddled up the murky waters of public relations. She has interviewed celebrities, written about film, lifestyle, property markets and smart cities.
But nowadays, she's all about sustainability — how it affects the Middle East and beyond. Rest of the time, she can be found tinkering away at a second draft of a first book.
WHAT WE CAN DO FOR YOU...
Whether you're in the market for an article or a press release, website copy or a blog post — let us tell your story.
Content writing, strategy, consultation — we do all things editorial. And on occasion, we'll even host podcasts or events.
But where we really excel is conference production. We've worked our mojo on events from the UAE to Saudi Arabia.
Don't just take our word for it. Check out what some of our regulars are saying.
