Research & Storytelling

Research with depth, context, and a strong sense of story.

Historical, cultural, and editorial research for articles, creative projects, content development, podcasts, scripts, and storytelling that needs more than surface detail.

What I can help with

Historical Research

Background research, timelines, archival digging, location history, and context for articles, essays, scripts, and creative projects.

Cultural Research

Research into places, communities, traditions, media, travel, food, folklore, and the social details that make a story feel grounded.

Editorial Support

Helping shape ideas, find angles, verify details, organise material, and turn scattered research into a clearer story structure.

Story Development

Research-led support for writers, creators, podcasters, and producers who need stronger context, sharper framing, or a more compelling narrative path.

Research approach

I’m interested in the details that change how a story feels: the overlooked history of a place, the cultural meaning behind a ritual, the small contradiction in an archive, or the human context behind a public issue.

My approach combines journalistic curiosity with narrative instinct. I look for accurate information, but also for the thread that helps people care.
