About me
I'm an experienced writer with a passion for storytelling and arts/culture/heritage. Whether it's a 4000-year-old artefact, an up-and-coming fashion brand or a fictional teenager living in a fantasy world, there's plenty of inspirational and thought-provoking stories around us waiting to be shared.
