I have written in a number of fields, including politics, satire, rugby union, driving, young people's participation, stand-up comedy and libretto-writing. My work has featured in national subscription magazines, a book published by Routledge, online blogs, local and student newspapers and, on stage, at the Edinburgh Fringe and in a prize-winning operetta. I also have editing experience for numerous websites, including Cambridge University Rugby Club and a national rugby blog, as editor of a student newspaper and as an editor of post-graduate theses and doctorates at Cambridge University.

    I believe in delivering work on time to the highest possible standard. I am also flexible and am an extremely reliable communicator, which will allow any employer to tailor the work to their exact specification.
