About me
I am a journalist and copywriter with 21 years’ experience writing news and features; creating impactful audio-visual content and devising content strategies for many clients.
I am highly organised and efficient, have extensive contacts and my two decades of experience as a journalist and copywriter in both print and online means I am able to both follow briefs and set them depending on requirements. I am SEO-trained for digital while also understanding requirements for print. I can turn copy around quickly, adhere to deadlines and am always mindful of the target reader to ensure that content has the desired impact.
Since turning freelance in 2017, I have written features for The Morning Advertiser, The Grocer, Micropub Magazine (now closed) and provided interviews with top hospitality names as interviews editor at Hospitality & Catering News, written a bi-weekly food trends column for Food Spark (now closed) and I have also written for Scotchwhisky.com (now closed) and created content for commercial clients, including pharmaceutical company TEVA and technology company Access. My freelance work has included copywriting as account and content manager for hospitality marketing and PR consultancy Custard.
My journalism career started at The Kentish Times in 2003, where I worked as a senior news reporter and co-arts editor for four years. I then moved into B2B publishing, working on drinks titles - both print and online - before taking on the role of editor at BigHospitality (Now Restaurant) for eight years. In this role I created a content strategy for the website and managed a team of two other journalists while writing news and features; creating videos, podcasts and photo galleries. My role included overseeing the publication's social media accounts and compiling a daily newsletter.
In 2020 I co-launched podcast Sounding Out Horsham which features local voices.
