I moved to London in 2008 to study journalism, with big dreams of becoming the UK’s answer to Carrie Bradshaw. My time at University taught me two things;..

1) How to harness the power of words to evoke emotions and actions in my readers.

2) That the Sex and the City writers must have been smoking the high grade. There is simply no way Carrie was running around town, in designer couture, with the spoils from one weekly newspaper column.

Whilst I’m yet to own even one pair of Manolos, the last 12 years have given me something more valuable than a pair of designer shoes - the ability to diversify my offering as a writer. 

I believe language is just as important whether you are writing for a magazine, a website or a social media post - and I enjoy working on all of them. Using words to connect with an audience - and helping brands do the same - is what really makes me tick. I was constantly in trouble for talking too much or passing notes at school, but I’ve somehow managed to make a career out of my incessant love for communication - so bite me, Mr Edgebaston.

When I’m not writing or working, I’m attempting to plan a wedding during a pandemic, making Instagram Reels about reproductive health or talking myself out of verbally disembowelling people who post ‘All Lives Matter’ on Facebook.
