I am an experienced Journalist. I have excellent communication skills and work well under pressure of deadlines while managing multiple projects.
I am also currently studying a masters in English and am looking to make a sideways move into publishing once I graduate in September 2018. My thesis, which I am currently researching and writing, is on the subject of ecocriticism and climate fiction.
I am a passionate writer and in 2017 launched an online magazine called SustainAble. SustainAble is an online platform for green-minded people who want to make more sustainable lifestyle choices. The readership has grown since launch, despite my focus being mainly on my masters degree at this present time. It can be found at www.asustainablemagazine.wordpress.co.uk
