Hi, I'm James, a freelance writer, business consultant, and very occasional surfer. After a decade in the world of economics and investment, I'm a fantastic problem solver, strategic thinker and an all-round helpful guy. If that sounds like something you need, please get in touch!
As a freelance business consultant, I've undertaken bespoke projects for start-ups and scale-ups. Whether it's developing a go-to-market strategy or finessing product UX, I love working with Founders to bring their ideas to life.
I'm an experienced writer, trained in creative and marketing copywriting, personal and humour writing, and adept at producing everything from pitch decks to press releases. As featured in The Guardian, Financial Times, and The Telegraph.
I'm the guy to call if you need some humour or drama injected into your copy! I'm a trained improviser, stand up and comedy writer. Over lockdown, I also wrote and produced some incredible quizzes.
My Journey
10 years in Economics & INvestment
Analytical, imaginative and articulate, I started my career in Economics but was quickly drawn to the world of Investment by the prospect of making decisions that really had an impact, and by the collaborative nature of getting a project completed.
EXPLORING THE WORLD, and The Arts
After deciding to leave my job in Investment, I set out to explore more of the world! I spent four months in Colombia and Brazil, and started to pursue my passion for writing and comedy more diligently. Along the way I have learned some fantastic lessons and made some great memories!
Now, The Next Step
Through a chance meeting in a co-working space, I started to see a value in my ability to communicate with Founders and Executives, quickly understanding their challenges, asking tough questions, and helping them find solutions. Pulling together all my professional and extra-curricular expertise, I am now a freelance consultant and writer.
