Consulting

Ray’s origins as a journalist and publisher bring a creative focus to digital strategy development
and execution, with depth of research provided by extensive academic experience.

Ray writes like breathing… it’s second nature, regardless of short copy/long form/detail. It was always a pleasure working with Ray, who could laugh at weird/be sensible when the topic required. I’d work with him again, any day.
