    Work Experience
    -----------------

    Summary: With more than 4 years of writing and journalism experience, I have written for clients which have ranged from The Guardian and The Independent on Sunday, to Red Seven Holidays and The Education Travel Group. I have several long-term clients, for which I write regular blog-posts, social-media feeds and SEO optimized online articles.

    A skilful writer and research, I have written carefully crafted copy on subjects that span IT software to African safaris. However, my particular areas of expertise lie in writing for the travel and educational markets, for which I bring an abundance of international travel experience, and four years of experience as a Geography teacher.

    In 2011, I received 2 awards from The Telegraph for the quality of my writing and won the Guardian's Big Adventure travel-writing award 2011.
