Meaningful change starts with a story well told.
I’m Abigail, and I’m here to help you tell that story. My career began over 20 years ago with a passion for language and sustainability, two worlds that often intersect in today’s global marketplace. Over the years, I’ve worked as a journalist, a writer, an editor, a translator, and a researcher. Wearing all of these hats has brought me to where I am today: working with clients across industries and continents, helping them navigate the complexities of sustainability reporting and ensuring their messages are understood across different cultures.

A note from Abigail:
I was born and bred in northern England and graduated with a Master’s in Translation and Interpreting from Heriot-Watt University in 2001. After a stint as a journalist and translator in Germany’s Black Forest region, I moved across the pond in 2005 and have since made my home in the Midwest. On weekends, I can be found making ceramics (with varying success), running 5k races just for the t-shirt, or hiking forests with my family and our rescue dog, Lucky.
