Biography
I'm a highly experienced and extremely versatile freelance journalist and editor with over 12 years of experience, and bylines in The Guardian, The Mirror, The Independent, BBC History Magazine and The New Statesman amongst many other publications. I have written extensively for BuzzFeed (I was their Scotland Editor for three years), Reach PLC (Edinburgh Live, Glasgow Live and the Daily Record, amongst many other titles) and LGBTQ+ website PinkNews, where I worked as Head of Audience and formerly Audience Editor for three years. I still work there for three days a week as a freelance SEO Editor. Highlights of my freelance career include writing several articles for the Guardian – including opinion pieces and entertainment articles – as well as an in-depth feature on older fashion models for the New Statesman ("Meet the over 60s supermodels: how a “greynaissance” is sweeping through fashion"), and personal pieces about mental health and poverty. I'm also a freelance audience development consultant and award-winning social media expert. I run social media and digital journalism training workshops in Edinburgh and the Lothians.
