I’m a creative, fast-learning writer with 5+ years’ experience in narrative, scripts, dialogue and copy.
Game narrative - how it takes players on a personal emotional journey - has always enraptured me. For 2 years I’ve created narrative arcs, developed characters and written dialogue for a mobile game of 7 million MAU. Check out my personal website for my full portfolio.

Video and Content SpecialistSkeleton Productions
- Nottingham, United KingdomFull Time
At this video agency I worked as a copywriter and scriptwriter. My main role was to craft succinct yet emotive scripts for our clients within time and budget constraints. Thanks to this experience I’m great at finding compromise, testing new approaches and never being precious about the first draft.
