My Story
A passion for languages, communication and place has shaped my life and career.
​
Growing up in the North East of England, the big skies and empty beaches had me dreaming of lands and cultures across the sea. I followed that curiosity and went off to study French and German, discovering a love of linguistics and Scandinavian languages along the way.
​
Researching how languages change over time led to a 10-year academic career, and gave me a deep appreciation for how language connects people across space and time.
​
Now based in the Netherlands, I'm combining my academic experience with my lifelong passion for communication to help science and research speak to the people who most need to hear it.
