Consulting

I work with individuals and organisations who need advice on complex and high-stake issues, ranging from career decisions and branding, to strategic questions where deep expertise and institutional knowledge really make a difference.

My consulting practice draws on a decade of experience across academic research and consulting on international security and geopolitics, policy networks, and strategic communications. Every engagement is tailored and held to the highest standards.

My Consulting Services

Admissions Consulting

Guidance for students applying to competitive European and international Masters programmes: Oxford, Cambridge, LSE and beyond. From research positioning to personal statements and interview preparation.

Academic Consulting

Support for researchers, doctoral candidates, and early-career academics navigating publishing, grant applications, CVs, cover letters, fellowship bids, and academic positioning strategy.

Personal Coaching

One-on-one support for individuals working through professional transitions, goal-setting, and personal development. Structured, honest, and grounded advice and a genuinely attentive ear.

Writing Coaching

One-on-one support for writers at any stage, from first draft to final version. For academics, professionals, and creative writers who want to write with more clarity, confidence, and intention.

Communications Consulting

Strategic counsel on thought leadership, branding, writing, public positioning, and digital presence for researchers, advocates, and professionals who need to communicate complex ideas with clarity and impact.

Editorial Consulting

Close reading, substantive feedback, and careful editing for manuscripts, essays, articles, and professional documents. For writers who want their ideas to land exactly as intended.

How it works

Every engagement begins with a scoping call. From there, we agree on format: a single intensive session, a defined project, or ongoing support.

I work with a small number of clients at a time. If you’re serious about what you’re working on, so am I.
