I’m Mary, founder of Socially Curious, a London-based consultancy specialising in social media strategy and AI training.

I help founders, B2B brands and organisations turn social media into a strategic growth channel and convert views into leads and sales.

I build authority, grow the right audience and unlock commercial opportunities. Clients work with me through strategy sessions, audits and bespoke 1:1 coaching, and use AI ethically, sustainably and responsibly to save 5+ hours a week.

I bring 16+ years of journalism and digital experience, including senior social roles at BBC Africa and Reach PLC. I’ve grown audiences, increased visibility and helped small businesses sell out events through strategic content and storytelling.

I’ve run interactive workshops and webinars, including a sold-out ‘Master Instagram with Strategy, Confidence & AI’ at UP, ‘Mastering Social Media & AI: Stand Out and Succeed Online’ at SBREC, Oru Space and UAL, and ‘Building Confidence & Your Personal Brand on LIVE’, which I co-hosted live with TikTok. All received outstanding feedback. I’ve also delivered social media masterclasses at News Associates, the UK’s leading journalism school.

I’ve spoken at London College of Contemporary Arts (LCCA) and Africa Day 2025, and moderated an AI trust and bias panel at Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity 2026.

Through Socially Curious CIC, I’ve delivered free digital and AI skills training to people from marginalised and underrepresented communities at Jobcentres.

When I’m not consulting, training or teaching, you’ll find me globe-trotting (42 countries, 16 solo and counting), on the dance floor, or making memories with family and friends.
