About me
A hard-working journalist with years of experience covering the film, television and technology industries. Having written for both B2C and B2B publications, my expansive portfolio covers affiliate content, features, opinion pieces, interviews, reviews, sponsored content and news stories. Starting out with a part-time blog and freelance gig for UCL's student publication, I went on to manage The Location Guide's online editorial presence and launch several of the company's production industry magazines. From there, I shifted into affiliate content and technology coverage, working for Trusted Reviews. Being promoted to Commercial Content Editor within my first year at Trusted Reviews, I now oversee the company's affiliate content, manage coverage of major sales events and offer assistance to other sections of the site where possible.

    Web EditorThe Location Guide
    London, United KingdomFull Time
    As Web Editor I manage The Location Guide's online news section and the editorial content for the company's annual locations directory and FOCUS expo magazine. I also maintain part of TLG's central management system, updating the database with information regarding global film incentives and companies working in the production industry. I am also tasked with managing the company’s social media channels which I have used to build the company’s global audience and, in conjunction with an efficient editorial schedule and search engine optimisation, increased TLG’s organic traffic by almost 40%. As an ambassador for TLG, I regularly travel around the world for exclusive editorial content and to build an international network of industry contacts. I have played a major role in overseeing the content of two new magazines launched under the TLG umbrella. For these magazines, I pitched ideas for how best to use their editorial sections and followed these ideas through to completion. As Editor of these magazines, I have written and commissioned several long-form articles that required extensive research and unique content to compete against similar magazines on the market.
