The work Sharon loves to do and the value it brings

There’s nothing Sharon likes better than untangling a complex proposition and coming up with a narrative that sings. With a special skill for turning dry or complex information into engaging stories, she helps clients create compelling content to spread their ideas, engage readers and win business.

On a mission to stamp out factory-farmed marketing, Sharon would like more companies to be human and loveable.

Sharon’s valuable content story

Sharon is a strategic and creative copywriter and coach, with a background in teaching English.

“In my early career, I worked for the BBC and interviewed people for documentaries. This kindled my passion for telling stories in real human voices—whether it’s a veteran talking about the Second World War, a mother sharing stories about her life in poverty, or an entrepreneur blogging about his lifework.

I was an English teacher for a time too. Teaching teens about grammar and literature certainly taught me how to capture attention!”

Before linking up with Sonja at Valuable Content, Sharon was Brand Manager at an award-winning Bristol communications consultancy.  She helps companies get their stories straight, and tell them in ways that audiences appreciate.

She’s a wordsmith and ruthless editor, and understand how to tickle, touch and dazzle readers with words. One of Sharon’s most read blogs “5 ways to kill your book club” inspired features in the Telegraph, and on the Today programme and The World at One.
