Travel PR | Freelance journalist and Editor

WRITING WORK

Freelance journalist and Editor with 18 years' experience working in the media industry at every level.

I started off my career in local news before working for agencies, national newspapers, magazines, websites and news apps. Career highlights include stints as a Court Reporter at the Old Bailey, News Editor at ITV News and Audience Editor for MailOnline, the world’s most-read news website, where I helped created bespoke content for the likes of Apple News and more. 

I had the longest-running column in More! magazine, The Secret Life of an Online Dater. I've been a regular Showbiz Reporter at The Mirror and written freelance articles for The Telegraph, Fabulous magazine, Refinery29 and Metro, among others.

After several years reviewing restaurants and hotels for luxury lifestyle magazines, I founded The Boutique Handbook magazine in January 2021.

The Boutique Handbook is your go-to for all things chic, featuring the best in travel, food and drink and lifestyle in the UK and beyond. Check it out at boutiquehandbook.com and make sure you're following on Instagram @boutiquehandbook
