Education

MA in JournalismLondon College of Communication, UAL

I completed my Master of Arts in Journalism (Print and Online) at the London College of Communication in 2013. I studied modules in media law, writing and editing for print and online, photo and video editing, website design and media theory. During that year our class took over editorial control of the University of the Arts’ newspaper. I served as the Features Editor and came up with ideas for articles for Arts London News, wrote and edited articles for print and online and worked with the editorial team to establish contributors, editors and content. I carried out interviews with senior members of UAL’s staff for a news story about cuts to disability services within the university and shot and edited my own film about the London Underground.
