About me

I am just about to finish an MA in Magazine Journalism at the University of Sheffield. This has given me the opportunity to develop my skills in photography and videography as well as my first love, writing. I am always looking for writing opportunities and freelance work.

Work history

Feature Writer
Jan 2017Sheffield, United KingdomFreelance
I write two pieces a month for The Student Wire about the issues facing students. I have written about living on a budget when you have a shopping addiction, staying fit and healthy at university and maintaining enthusiasm during exam periods. I have learned to work to tight deadlines, and collaborated with other writers and brands interested in advertising.
Blog Writer
May 2016Sheffield, United KingdomFreelance
I started my own lifestyle blog during my undergraduate degree, allowing me to discuss topics of personal interest, such as ‘coming out’, body image, fourth wave feminism and sex positivity. Having my own blog has taught me how to use social media effectively to promote blog posts and to schedule posts regularly. It has also given me experience of using image and video editing software.
