I’ve got a degree in Psychology and certificate in Psychotherapy. I’ve been an AQR board member, industry mentor and have tutored on various topics in research.

I’m an insight, innovation and inspiration specialist with around 25 years of experience. I’ve had senior client-side roles, I’ve run a couple of successful insight agency businesses and I’ve won some industry awards along the way.

I still love finding great insights - and helping businesses to do something interesting and original with them.

I work independently (as Man Overboard) and also get paid to share my experience with agencies, client teams and organisations such as the AQR.

I’m a strategist with a background in qualitative consumer research, and 15 years of experience on global projects for tech, fashion and FMCG brands. I love understanding people, telling their stories, and using that knowledge to solve business problems.

In my spare time I run a bean-to-bar chocolate business with my partner. I also occasionally teach strategy at a couple of different universities, but I’m pretty sure I learn more from that than the students do.

I’m an independent insight and behaviour change expert with over 15 years experience working in a qualitative research context.

Through the practical application of behavioural science, I work with my clients to develop powerful strategies for behaviour change.

My work reflects the behaviour change challenges of our time – drinking less, being safer, living greener, eating better, saving more – I’ve done it all in collaboration with some wonderful charities and private sector clients. I also work extensively in campaign development for clients including The Home Office, RNLI and WWF.

I also train professional researchers in qualitative research skills and work closely with my clients to help them use insight into drive innovation and change within their organisations.

I believe that the way to make smart decisions is to look at your problem from a systems perspective, and understand people through the lens of imperfection and complexity. It’s messy, it’s ambiguous, and it’s a truer reflection of reality.

I work independently as o systema, and also collaborate with agencies and organizations. In addition to my work as a consultant, I also mentor new researchers, and contribute articles on research methodologies and customer experience.

I’m an expert in qualitative research. Name a category and I guarantee I’ve talked to people about their relationship with it in the past 16 years. From erectile dysfunction to energy drinks, gender issues in modern financial structures to relationships with bread - I specialize in designing and facilitating truly engaging conversations with human beings, whether online or in-person.

I also have a passion for amateur home improvement, spending as much time outside as possible and finding new hobbies to get obsessively involved with on a yearly basis.

I’m a researcher with a commercial edge.

I specialise in advertising research, where insights can inform marketing strategy or comms. I turn volumes of output into succinct, compelling and actionable insights - whether it’s audience, media, category or brand. I focus on finding the ‘so what’ and delivering output that’s engaging – a balance of simplifying whilst not losing detail.
