I am a storyteller. I have a large repertoire of stories, including ancient Greek myths, Celtic legends, Medieval romances and Grimms fairy tales. My stories run the gamut from fables to epics. As well as traditional tales I often create stories on the fly using suggestions from the audience. Each session is unique and adapted to the needs and requirements of my audience, and may reflect the season, upcoming festivals or topical themes. Audience size can be anything from a few people to a few hundred. I tell anywhere where people want to be entertained or informed, e.g. schools, village halls, clubs, weddings, dinners…

Along with sessions where I tell stories for entertainment I run workshops for children and adults in storytelling, creativity and public speaking skills. Workshops can be single hour, whole days with one group, or multiple days depending upon the aims of the participants.

As a storyteller I am used to taking events and connecting them into flowing and compelling narratives. I can help companies examine and improve their own internal stories and the stories they are exposing to the public.

I am a keen walker and lover of the outdoors and regularly run story walks where I tell stories in the woods or hills and we create stories based upon the landscape around us.

For many years I worked as a scientist and I have now started to create programmes of stories involving mathematical and scientific content.

Based in the Wirral I am ideally located for events in North Wales, Cheshire, Merseyside, Lancashire and Shropshire, but have travelled and told throughout the country and abroad.
