Most recently she worked in Scotland on Adaptation Scotland, a national programme funded by Scottish Government where she was responsible for the development and management of the private sector work programme; building capacity among Scotland’s businesses to enable effective climate change adaptation.

Prior to this she worked for RPS in Ireland and was central to the development of some of the most high profile environmental awareness campaigns such as CHANGE, the national awareness and communication campaign on climate change, Notice Nature, the national awareness campaign on biodiversity and the award winning Race Against Waste campaign.
