How I work
Every engagement follows a simple, transparent path, so you always know what happens next.
1. Enquiry. You tell me about your project, question or collection. A short email is a great way to start the conversation.
2. Proposal. Within a week, I send a scope, timeline and fixed quote.
3. Research. I work in the archives, with your team, in collections or with all three! I will keep you updated as findings emerge with regular correspondence or, if needed, formal reporting.
4. Delivery. You receive a polished, usable outcome: a report, workshop, talk or publication.
Every quote is prepared in line with the Professional Historians Australia Scale of Fees.
