I'm a journalist and copywriter with a wealth of experience in sex, relationships and technology. Currently, I'm a freelance writer and social media manager working with clients in the sex and relationships space. Alongside this, I also write journalistic features and service-led pieces for a range of publications, including Vice, Refinery29, Vogue, HuffPost, Xtra, Restless, Wellby, The Curiosity Club, The Flock, Self&More, and others.
Previously, I worked as a content manager at global Internet solutions provider GoDaddy, developing UX, blog, social media and newsletter copy and directing design for three years.
Projects credited in
- #OneDayIWill - International Women's Day 2016I was part of the #OneDayIWill campaign put together by Google where women had to say what they will do one day. Out of 337 people I was one of 58 chosen! I decided to say "One Day I will make women more financially confident." Through creating www.refinedcurrency.co.uk we are still working on doing that today.
