I support organisations that work tirelessly to make the world a better place.
Who I am
After successfully running a values-driven B Corp translation company for 14 years, I set up as a Language & Communications Specialist for non-profit organisations in 2025 so that I can continue to drive positive change through my work.
My extensive experience in managing external and internal communications is underpinned by my training in linguistics and copywriting. I believe that consistent messaging and engaging content are key to amplifying your organisation’s mission, and to communicating the value you create.
A broad skillset for a varied role
Over the course of my career, I’ve been a Managing Director, a live-in carer, a transport planner, a risk analyst, an administrator, a chalet host, and a waitress. As it turns out, a generalist skillset and a can-do attritude are huge assets for the multi-faceted role of Communications Manager.
From planning, co-ordinating and analysis to writing, graphic design and podcasting, there is never a dull day in the world of comms. Here are just some of the things I do as a Communications Manager:
- Brand storytelling & marketing
- Content creation & management
- Website management
- Social media management
- Newsletter management
- Podcast production
- Search engine optimisation (SEO)
- Community & stakeholder engagement
- Internal communications
Strategy before tactics, always
My task is to support your organisation in delivering on its mission. That’s why every piece of communication – whether internal or external; long-form or short form; online or print – needs to link back to the overarching strategy on how to achieve that mission. No communication for communication’s sake. Everything leads back to the Why of your work.

Over the 6+ years I worked under Anja’s leadership, I’ve seen her manage business operations the same way she manages people: with heart and balance, and to an unmatched standard that I have yet to re-discover elsewhere. Her industry expertise and approach to people management were nothing short of exceptional!
