A move to Yangon, Myanmar, sparked an interest in lifestyle journalism. For a short spell I wrote various pieces for Myanmore, one of the first mags to cater to the growing number of expats moving into Yangon.
From there I'd move to Ibiza, bringing my passion for writing and electronic dance music together. An internship with Ibiza Spotlight became a full time position for three years. An incredible three summers.
For two years I've been in music PR, now a senior publicist with boutique PR firm The Prizm Network. Our international client base spans the house and techno spectrum, with us looking after record labels, DJs and producers, and events.
My passion for electronic music spans genres and eras, but it's definitely the second summer of love that has my heart with my mum living through that time.
