Work Experience

I am a skilled researcher, writer, editor and proofreader with experience of working on both hard copy publications and online content.

My most recent role, as managing editor on a range of magazines for the entertainment technology sector, encompassed all of these tasks, along with page layout and website management.

In addition to this I have worked as a researcher/writer for legal publications, and as chief sub-editor for a range of magazines and journals covering the financial and commercial property markets.

I have also produced a series of regional surveys - both UK and European - involving extensive web- and telephone-based research.

Previous freelance experience includes academic proofreading - including essays and theses covering topics such as modern history, history of art and maths.
