Talks & panels
Keynotes, conference sessions, panel discussions, chairing and facilitated conversations on science, space, sustainability, communication and responsible innovation.
Speaking &
collaboration.
I contribute informed, accessible perspectives on science, space, sustainability, communication and the work of making complex ideas useful in the real world.
Invite a contributionThe fit
For conversations worth making clearer.
I work with organisers, producers, editors, educators, researchers and mission-led teams who need a thoughtful contributor, rather than simply a speaker slot filled.
- Conference, festival and event organisers
- Podcast hosts, journalists, editors and producers
- Universities, schools, societies and public-engagement teams
- Research groups, networks and collaborative projects
- Science, space, climate and sustainability organisations
Ways I can contribute
A useful perspective, in the format that fits.
The format should serve the audience and purpose. A keynote, panel, interview, article or collaborative project each calls for a different kind of preparation and contribution.
Media & editorial
Podcast interviews, media commentary, commissioned articles, expert contributions and editorial collaboration for audiences navigating scientific or technical subjects.
Research & public engagement
Collaborative research, advisory input, public programmes and engagement activity that connect evidence, expertise and wider audiences with care and clarity.
A grounded perspective
Technical enough to be useful. Clear enough to travel.
I bring a background in physics and astrophysics together with experience in strategic communication, digital practice, events, public engagement and work across the space and sustainability sectors.
That combination helps me contribute without flattening the subject: connecting evidence and technical detail with the questions, concerns and decisions that matter to an audience.
Before we begin
A good brief makes a stronger contribution.
- For events
- Share the event purpose, audience, format, date, location, session length and whether the contribution is in person, online or hybrid.
- For media
- Include the outlet or programme, intended audience, subject, angle, format, deadlines and any preparation, recording or editorial requirements.
- For collaborations
- Outline the problem or opportunity, intended outcome, proposed partners, expected contribution, timescale and how decisions will be made.
- Fees & availability
- Fees, expenses, preparation time, usage rights and availability are agreed before a contribution is confirmed.
