Welcome to my digital home.
I’m a European with an interest in organisational behaviour and a passion for yarn crafts. I also have a popcorn machine brain and so am always working on something. You can find about all of these on this site.
European Union
I have studied, worked for, written about and researched the European Union. And gone on a game show.
Yarn crafts
I’ve been knitting since I was 8 and have recently taught myself to crochet.
Organisations
My masters thesis was on networks within organisations and I’m fascinated by how work works.
Projects
This is a selection of the mad things I get up to when I’m not working.
Life
Musings on things that don’t fit elsewhere. Mainly dogs.
