I’m very excited to share this: Research Notes Studio is now live www.researchnotesstudio.com.

What started as a handful of research favours slowly grew into something larger. And somewhere between grant deadlines, and the strange luck of academic life, this little studio took shape.

After a decade in academia, including a PhD and 2 postdocs, I have returned to the corporate world of consulting. I’ll still be writing and publishing material from my academic research projects, and also keeping Research Notes Studio going, but the academic career is, sadly, over.

We warmly invite submissions from scholars who engage with technological history in all branches of historical study.
The theme “Engaging the History of Technology” asks how the field can speak to new methods, pedagogies and public practices to help us navigate today’s challenges.

I’ve just launched Research Notes Studio, where I support researchers and organisations with editing, research development, and grant-writing.
If you’re preparing a manuscript or a proposal or know someone who is, please share www.researchnotesstudio.com

Research Notes Studio is a place for the work I love: helping people refine their writing, strengthen their arguments, and craft proposals that have a real chance in a tough academic landscape.

If you’re working on something that needs a clearer shape, I’d love to help.

New Precious Cargo essay.

It’s about cycling while getting slapped by the wind, falling over at 6km/hr, and realising my son is having the time of his life while I question all my choices.

My son fell asleep somewhere between the lake and the roundabout, and the world seemed to soften.

A new Precious Cargo essay on cycling, trust, and the art of carrying what matters.
