About
I am an experienced verbatim reporter and scopist and if you require high-quality transcripts with a fast turn round, you need look no further! I can provide transcripts on a standard or expedited basis.
I hold an MA (Hons) degree in History from Edinburgh University. I also hold a Diploma for Graduate Secretaries from Napier College, Edinburgh.
I trained as a court reporter in Scotland, where I worked in the civil and criminal courts for William Hodge Ltd. In 1991 I joined WB Gurney & Sons and worked predominantly in the Houses of Parliament in London, producing edited transcripts for select committees and parliamentary Bills. From 2007 Gurney’s acquired a variety of new clients, including regulatory bodies, government departments and legal and financial firms, and I attended and produced transcripts on a write-out/overnight/delayed basis.
In 2016, I became a partner of W B Gurney & Sons. As well as continuing to produce transcripts as a stenographer, I developed skills in business planning, quality management, marketing, training and cloud management and storage.
Gurney’s was acquired by Auscript Ltd in March 2016 and I became a freelance stenographer and transcriber. I use a Stenograph Luminex with Case Catalyst software but am able to provide transcripts in Word format and/or clients’ own templates.
I attend or dial in to a wide variety of assignments: parliamentary committees, court hearings, seminars, disciplinary hearings, for public and private sector clients. I transcribe from audio civil and Crown Court proceedings, regulatory hearings, inquests and police interviews.
I gained accredited scopist status in September. I edit and proofread transcripts for Hansard, the General Synod of the Church of England and the Commonwealth Foundation.
I have been security cleared by Parliament to attend the Houses of Parliament. I hold a current DBS certificate.
I have covered parliamentary proceedings throughout this year. All remote. I have produced edited transcripts of select committee hearings.
I have covered CoE Synod - remotely
I have covered several seminars/workshops in Parliament and for private clients - all remote
