About me
Even as a big believer in the mantra ‘never say never’, for me, writing is what it always comes back to. With six years of regional news, feature and web writing experience, my skills include creating concise, informative, engaging and accessible copy, as well as news sense, interviewing techniques and SEO. I recently enjoyed a maternity-length news hiatus as a PR Officer at The Vegan Society writing press releases, social media copy and promoting campaigns, while other journalism dalliances include online and print features for Muddy Stilettos, Readers Digest, The Metro, The Vegan and Breathe magazine, with topics spanning from moths and lichens to living a zero-waste lifestyle, the joy of sticky notes and a nervous foray into laughter yoga.
