About me
I'm an experienced journalist and editor, having worked on local newspapers in Sussex for 11 years. In that time, I've developed excellent writing, research and interviewing skills, and have a sharp news sense. Creating engaging content and storytelling is second nature to me, and my time as commercial editor developed my ability to tell compelling brand stories for a wide range of organisations.
