As the founding director of The Cultural Angle I am dedicated to working cooperatively and creatively with individuals and organisations and offer my expertise in:​

​

• Facilitation of focus group discussions and forums

• Presentation of inspirational seminars and workshops

• Analyses of internal and external quality customer service

• Refinement and re-development of existing products and services

• Representation of organizations for public relations and marketing
   

In all my work I draw on my extensive industry experience and academic knowledge and expertise in:

​

• Social psychology of leisure, travel and tourism

• Special interest tourism and sustainable tourism

• Consumer behaviour and marketing

• Intercultural and compassionate communication

• Emotional literacy and relationship management

• Social research and trend analysis

• Policy planning and strategic management

 

Importantly it is the breadth of my life experiences that motivate and inform all my work and engagements.  As a life traveller with varied learning experiences along my journey through life, I believe we all have stories of value to share that provide human connection so important for our individual and societal health and well-being.

 

In our times of societal upheavals and the impact of COVID-19, I treasure the opportunities to be part of local and global communities sharing experiences, promoting critical mindfulness, creativity and innovation. I look forward to contribute to mutual aspirations of harmony and peace, and to a new travel and tourism dynamic.
