About me

I am a third year Photojournalism student at University of South Wales, graduating in June 2019. My main passion is music, having shot a range of gigs in Cardiff over the past two years for local magazine Buzz Magazine, as well as writing reviews of live shows. Before university, I worked at Thomas International for 9 months as part of the Quality team alongside Marketing, assisting in maintaining consistencies with brand and design within company documents and presentations; helping to launch the brand new website and photographing company events.
