I am a writer and programme developer based in Luton, England. This website serves as a hub for my various projects.
To say a bit about me, I grew up in Madagascar and Kenya, and studied journalism, international relations and cultural studies with a view to being a foreign correspondent in Africa. In the end I decided to stay in the UK, and I found plenty to write about it consumerism, sustainability, the environment and corporate responsibility.
I work part-time as a writer and programme developer for SGM Lifewords, and part-time as a freelance journalist.
My main projects at the moment are Make Wealth History, the Breathe Network, and Transition St Albans.
Hey, Bean…remember me? I’m Mark’s wife. I found a cool website about “playumps.” They provide clean water and are powered by kids playing on a merry go round. Thought it went well with the “designing for the other 90% post.”

Hope all is well. I enjoy reading the posts.
Cheers.
