Who am I?
I'm a journalist and editor with 17 years experience in the world of professional journalism and an MA in Journalism from Goldsmiths College, the University of London.
I have recently begun working as a freelance journalist, editor and digital consultant, following six years as Senior Digital Editor at Gardens Illustrated, one of the UK's foremost gardening and garden design magazines.
At Gardens Illustrated I reshaped the brand's digital output, building its readers and followers exponentially during the time I was there.
I have worked in-house at the Daily Telegraph where I covered film, TV, theatre, lifestyle, books and more. At Time Out London I was Deputy Theatre Editor and wrote reviews, interviews and features for the theatre desk as well as several other sections including food and film.
I worked as Managing Editor of WhatsOnStage, the UK's most-read theatre website. I also worked as an Associate Lecturer in Journalism at the University of West of England in Bristol and have appeared on Sky News, Woman's Hour and BBC Radio London as an expert in theatre. My freelance writing has appeared in publications including The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Harrow Times, Time Out Guides and Ambit Magazine.
