How did you come to Tribe?
I’ve just moved to Edinburgh, and was looking for a space to work away from my home office and meet some new people. I’ve recently been working on some very edit-heavy projects, so it’s great to escape the screens and find somewhere that encourages me to think creatively about how to grow my business.

What makes you smile?
A good dog (most dogs really…), getting out of the city, walking, cycling, discovering new places, spending time cooking good food.

Professionally, getting to meet, work with and learn from a huge variety of really passionate people and visit places I’d never imagined I’d see. Getting back from a job and looking through the rushes late at night, knowing there’s something special in there somewhere.

What do you like about Tribe most?
It’s super friendly, and really well organised. It’s great to find so many independent workers creating such an interesting community. Also, the bike ride in via the Water of Leith and the Prom never fails to get my brain working. Great to find a co-working space that’s dog friendly too.

What are you working on right now? 
Currently planning the next set of corporate jobs here and in Europe, alongside ongoing work with Slow Food UK showcasing sustainable, quality food producers.
