Expertise

My expertise are based in features writing, fashion, hard news, presenting, portraiture photography and interviews.

  • My first big news story I covered in my first year on a stabbing that happened in Sheffield. At the time this was a big win for me and taught me self-belief and that I was on the right career path.
  • Co-Founding my podcast ‘We don’t know either babe’. This taught me a lot of resilience and confidence in my ability and as a person. It also taught me how to articulate myself in a fun, approachable but clear manner.
  • When I was included in a London Fashion Week video during lockdown, it gave me way into the fashion industry and sparked my love for creative photography.

Experience

I have written for student based newspapers such as Forge Press and Liberty Belle. I have experience in writing in the style of Public relations for press releases. I also am in the process of writing my first book.

Education

I studied at Southend High school for girls grammar for both my GCSE’s and A levels. I now am an undergraduate student at the University of Sheffield
