Simon Black

During my career I have worked as a journalist, manager, editor, head of communications, and strategist for a number of media companies and across multiple mediums including radio, television, print and digital. I am just as comfortable writing blogs, opinion pieces, and reporting on major news events to tight deadlines as I am designing and implementing successful content strategies for online publications, writing speeches and media releases, or creating communications strategies for a company or not-for-profit. I have also had extensive experience as a master of ceremonies, guest lecturer at university and private events and as talent on news and radio as well as discussing current events in televised panel discussion shows. I have a keen interest in politics, the environment, physical fitness, martial arts, popular culture, and the intersection of communications and technology.
