Biography
I am a British freelance journalist based near Toulouse in France. In June 2023 I took up a Senior Reporter position at WellToDo, part of Fitt Insider, penning stories across the fitness, health and wellness industries. (You can sign up for WellToDo's insightful weekly newsletter here: welltodoglobal.com.) Previously, I was Managing Editor and Head of News for fitness industry titles HCM (Health Club Management) and Fit Tech. My main beats are fitness, health, wellness, travel, cruise and tech, and as a freelance journalist, I'm still taking on commissions from titles such as The Telegraph and World of Cruising. I'm grateful to be widely published and my bylines can also be found in the likes of ZDNet, Yahoo!, NZ Herald, CNN Travel, Woman & Home, New Scientist, Ship Technology, Trail Running magazine, New Statesman and Candis. I am a member of the BAJ (British Association of Journalists) and the UK's Guild of Health Writers.
