Educator

I help specialists use factual stories
to explain technical concepts clearly
without being simplistic.

What I do

I help specialists present their work with clear, factual stories.Since 2013 I have helped over 6000 researchers, engineers, policy officers, lawyers, diplomats and entrepreneurs use factual stories to explain complex concepts and impact audiences.I love what I do, and I do it well.

What I help clients with

As a trainer, I have developed a unique method of storytelling for complex, intangible projects.While classic "communication" tends to be oversimplistic;Factual storytelling makes facts clearer and appealing without compromising on accuracy.It is a technique used for case studies, mini-documentaries, TED Talks, investor pitches and technical sales.Since 2017, I've trained 3000+ professionals to this technique - working in embassies, particle accelerators, startups, funders, policy agencies and deep tech.
