My Freelance Services
I work with science and tech companies, organizations, and journals that have complex stories to tell – I help write, edit, and review them. Are you a science PhD looking to transition from academia to industry? I help with that, too. Need full content development and marketing strategy? No problem, I can help.
Career Consulting for Academics
I deliver
Academic-to-industry career advice and strategy tailored specifically to the unique mindsets and hurdles of physical scientists.
Resume and LinkedIn transformation that translates deep academic research, publications, and lab skills into terms corporate recruiters actually look for.
Interview preparation and positioning to help you confidently pitch your technical expertise, communicate business value.
Job-search roadmaps designed to uncover hidden roles in high-tech, R&D, and deep-tech sectors without endlessly cold-applying.
This is for
This is for science PhDs, postdocs, and researchers who are ready to transition from academia to industry but need a strategic roadmap to translate their complex technical skills into high-value corporate assets.

Making the Leap: A Reflection Journal for Science & Deep-Tech PhDs Entering Industry
Should I stay in academia – or move into industry? It's one of the hardest questions a scientist ever faces, and most PhDs work through it alone, with no real guide.
Making the Leap is a practical, honest journal for such crossroads. I wrote it based on my own journey – from a physics PhD at a Max Planck Institute, through a false start in patent law, to a technical project management role in deep-tech, and eventually to self-employment – this journal doesn't hand you generic career advice. It gives you 19 guided reflection prompts, practical exercises to translate your academic experience into language industry understands, a structured application tracker, and a glossary of roles no one explains in academia.
Whether you're just starting to wonder, or already deep in the job search, this journal helps you think it through clearly – at your own pace, in your own words.

How we work together
I work on a project basis or as an ongoing retainer, depending on what makes sense for your needs. Typical engagements range from a focused one-off deliverable (a book review, a website rewrite, a career-consulting hour) to ongoing, as-needed coaching (PhDs and postdocs navigating their industry transition) to a monthly content retainer covering scientific content, technical writing, and SEO for research-focused organisations.
All projects start with a short discovery call to clarify scope, timeline, and fit.

Google Business Profile setup, optimization, and multilingual management.
Local and technical SEO strategy and implementation.
LinkedIn content strategy and post production for science brands.

Launch campaigns for books, products, and digital tools.

This is for
Companies, organizations, and individuals who want a consistent, credible content presence but don't have time to build it themselves. I've done this for my own brand, which means I understand the full pipeline from first draft to published post.
