As a culture writer with an MA in Cultural Studies and a background in narrative non-fiction publishing, I am devoted to compelling storytelling. With a voracious appetite for exploring cultural nuances, I aim to deliver content that captivates and inspires, whether I am delving into literature, reflecting on art, dissecting fashion trends, or analysing the impact of theatre, film and TV. Equipped with skills in research, writing, and editing, I am an enthusiastic and proactive self-starter. With strong organisational and time management skills, I also have strong communication skills and I am a team player with a 'can-do' attitude.
