Biography
A journalist since 2009 and member of the National Union of Journalists and the Society of International Media & Press Photographers, I specialise in covering foreign affairs, human rights and general news and telling important human stories in the Arabian Peninsula, and Sub-Saharan Africa, especially East and Central Africa. I have reported from Lebanon, Malawi, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, South Sudan, Burundi and Yemen or a diverse range of publications. These include the International Business Times, the Independent, the Evening Standard, The New Statesman, Jazeera Magazine, Yahoo News and the Daily Telegraph. I have appeared as a guest analyst on a number of prime-time news programs including African network Arise News, the Islam Channel TV and KBIA, a National Public Radio (NPR) affiliate. After telling stories at the NSPCC and Sentebale, I am now working with Project Masam, a humanitarian landmine, unexploded ordnance (UXO) and improvised explosive device (IED) clearance programme in Yemen. I lead on all things media and advocacy by undertaking media campaigns (press releases, content across electronic, print and social media). I regularly write stories, news articles, features and blogs for the organisation and help produce multi-media content. I also work as a fixer/producer for documentary crews needing stories and news from Yemen. In my spare time, I also provide my story telling and content writing services to various not-for-profits and corporate clients (blog posts, news articles and social content).
