About me
I am a freelance journalist, videographer and voice over artist with a decade of experience working for FTSE100 companies, media outlets, sports organisations and research agencies. I started my career providing voice overs for a diverse mix of clients, before becoming a camera operator at Southampton Football Club. This led to me taking charge of the press operations for the London Olympic Games 2012 with a focus on the Beach Volleyball. From here, I joined William Reed Business Media as a news reporter, feature writer, podcast creator and videographer for the Food Manufacture Brand. It was during this time that I received the prestigious Multimedia Journalist of the Year award. After almost five years at WRBM, I moved to Vox Pops International as a Project Manager to oversee the production of videos for companies ranging from Coca-Cola Enterprises to the Co-operative Group. I was also in-house voice over artist for VPI's research animations. It was at this point that I finally felt ready to fulfil a lifelong ambition to provide solutions to businesses large and small as a freelancer.
