I like to follow my interests which has led me to work and play across
the boundaries of science, technology, media and the arts, as a
producer, curator, science communicator, festival programmer and change
facilitator.

Over the past 5 years I have been inspired to be more
reflective, i guess this stems from working with extraordinary and creative folk that have inspired me with their creativity in the face of adversity.

This has led to exploring and evolving the links and interconnections between the different avenues of my work and specifically the people, places and technologies that I have encountered in order to facilitate creative interaction, learning and social innovation.

My personal ambition is to learn, interact and innovate where necessary in order to make a difference.

The Manchester Beacon is one small (but growing) way i envisage that Manchester's collective and creative knowledge can be harnessed to contribute to and shape a world that i'd like to
live in and be part of.
