I am an experienced native-English speaking broadcast journalist based in Brussels and specialised in reporting the EU for British broadcasters including the BBC, ITV and Channel 4 News, and international radio and television news around the world. Read testimonials below.
I moderate conferences, events and present television debates on a wide range of topics. I provide an objective, independent voice to ensure balanced, engaging and passionate debate. Contact me to discuss your project.
I am a conference and event speaker on issues relating to politics, journalism and Britain’s relationship with the European Union. I have given talks at international conferences, to large audiences and to smaller groups. Find out more about me below.
I am an ambitious and enthusiastic political journalist keen to make sense of the issues. I am constantly looking to broaden my skills and make new contacts. I am always on the lookout for a good story.
I have worked in political journalism for more than 15 years, starting out at the BBC based in the UK and then from Brussels, reporting the European Union for the BBC, ITV and Channel 4 News, as well as other major broadcasters around the world.
I have a good understanding of how the EU works, and how and why it is relevant to the UK. This requires making sense of complex issues, constantly keeping up to speed with developments and looking at all sides of the story.
I regularly interview politicians from across the political spectrum, as well as campaigners, celebrities, and business people.
Combined with my work as a journalist, I provide lectures and workshops to students on journalism and political reporting, and moderate conferences, events and debates.
I am the co-founder of a Brussels-based choir managing rehearsals and concerts in Belgium and around Europe.
