I’m a lifestyle writer. What that means, among other things, is that I have an editorial fear of commitment; which in turn means there's hopefully at least one article here that'll interest you.

I cover too much, including travel, sport, culture and food & drink, alongside anything that will help me lose weight put on due to the latter. I recently spent three years working alongside British GQ and the magazine’s global markets, writing and editing for GQ Online (see my author page here) and liaising with GQ’s various teams across the world on global launches. Other publications I’ve worked with include The Sunday Times, The Daily Telegraph, The Independent, Esquire, National Geographic Traveller, Wallpaper* and Euronews, and I have experience in copywriting for a range of companies including Lexus and American Express.

I’m also Contributing Editor of three-time FSA Award nominated football publication The Pinch, hosting its sister podcast, and have appeared on the BBC’s From Our Own Correspondent, TalkSport and multiple shows for Premier League Productions.

I moved away from London a few years ago and now live in York, but you’ll regularly find me on the East Coast line bound for King’s Cross. I also have degree-level German, which comes in particularly handy at Christmas markets. 

For any commissions, work offers, or random internet commentary, feel free to get in touch! Otherwise, please enjoy my semi-professionally-collated list of features, interviews, reviews and anything else I've fancied along the way.
