My early career as a writer was formed whilst working for PR and Advertising agencies in London, England. My interests in IT led me to work as a technical writer for the IT sector and there I covered a range of software, hardware and corporate issues.
I formed Hand In Hand PR in the 1990's, dealing with consumer and b2b clients. Eventually, with an expanding family, I decided to concentrate on Freelance Writing and I combined this with an interim executive position as Sales and Marketing Director at Eclipse Microsystems Ltd.
Becoming involved in the literacy work in local schools steered me towards writing for a variety of childcare and education titles.
Today, I continue to write Feature Articles, Debates, News Items, PR and Advertising copy and Website content. My company, Aitkens Media Ltd., has offered a range of digital marketing & copywriting services since 2010.
