Specialist areas
I cover a wide range of business topics; including property, regeneration, manufacturing, international trade and both personal and corporate finance. I love writing 'people profiles', on characters as diverse as the high-profile architect Glenn Howells and Sultan Choudhury, CEO of Al Rayan Bank. Am currently (Sept 2015) writing an annual review for Calthorpe Estates, creating content for a construction software client of Tomorrow People, writing pages for new web-sites at Open Box Publishing and the Confederation of British Metalforming. Have also started writing features for DHL's house magazine (Delivered) and Bauer Media's Automotive Management.
