About ME
I’ve spent my career doing what I love
Jo Burton
It’s fair to say that I’m a little bit obsessed with words – saying them out loud, listening to them, writing them, reading them, editing them and then editing them again. My love affair with language began when I was a child, having far too much to say at primary school, followed by most of my teenage years spent reading with a torch at night when I should have been asleep!
I’m grateful every day that something I’ve always loved doing turned into a career, and I was lucky enough to spend many years fine-tuning my skills in some amazing corporate marketing roles. In 2011 I felt ready to take that leap and make more of a difference, so I decided to go freelance and started Project B – and I’ve never really looked back.
When I’m not working I am kept busy looking after two lively boys, my husband and our pet pooch Poppy. Being a homebird at heart I enjoy the simple things in life, spending time with friends and family, cooking great food and having a good old natter with a brew.

I truly believe a good first impression counts and I’d like to help you make one too
“All my life I’ve looked at words as though I were seeing them for the first time.”
– Ernest Hemingway
Why Work With Me?
I absolutely love what I do and still get inspired each time a new project comes along. I feel very lucky that each client brings something fresh and new, and with this comes great job satisfaction.
Working with local businesses is so rewarding, and I always feel very privileged to help people tell their story. Providing a unique and personalised service to each client is really important to me and this is why I’m proud that most of my work comes by recommendation from others.
