I am an author, digital strategist and business systems consultant based in Aberdeen, with over 30 years’ experience spanning commercial operations, digital infrastructure, branding, and technology.

​

I began my career in administration and secretarial roles within Scotland’s oil and gas industry in the early 1980s, gaining early exposure to commercial decision-making, organisational systems, and operational structure. From there, I progressed through office management, management accounts, and IT management, before moving into creative disciplines such as branding and website development - building a unique combination of operational, technical, and creative expertise.

​

Over the decades, I have continually strengthened this expertise through extensive professional training, ensuring I remain current in an ever-evolving digital landscape. This includes advanced training in Microsoft Office, Adobe Suite, HTML, CompTIA Network+, Python programming, digital marketing, AI ethics and governance, and systems such as Sage and Google Sheets, supported by formal certifications.

​

Today, I work at the intersection of strategy, systems, and creativity. I design modern websites, develop strong brand identities, and implement structured digital systems that support scalable, sustainable growth.

​

Alongside my commercial work, I have worked closely with schools, families, and local authorities as an online safety consultant, supporting autistic children to navigate the digital world with confidence.

​

Across every project - from digital strategy and infrastructure to branding and innovation - my focus remains the same: clear thinking, structured systems, and practical solutions that work in the real world.
