I am a freelance writer and editor with over six years of experience. Originally from New Zealand and now based in the UK, I have a passion for travel, food, fashion, lifestyle and human interest stories.
As an experienced Feature Writer and Editor, I've had the opportunity to sink my teeth into a variety of fascinating topics, from dining guides and travel stories, to cover features and in-depth think pieces. Being part of small teams has required me to hone my skills across all editorial areas, including print and digital, social media, weekly e-newsletters, and sponsored client content.
My skills and experience:
- Feature writing (travel, food, lifestyle, culture, entertainment, fashion, news)
- Copywriting (website copy, blogs, newsletters)
- Sponsored content
- Interviewing
