Student culture, UK universities, Russell Group universities, Oxbridge, pop culture, film, TV, ranking Russell Group universities by everything possible, things with dragons in, the wonder that is Taylor Swift
Her work has appeared in The Independent, Den of Geek, Square Mile, Screen International, Creative Review, the Museums Journal and The Hampshire Chronicle. And also in the newspaper she made for her Sylvanian Families toys when she was eight.
Claudia studied Classics at the University of Cambridge. Since ancient Greek grammar is a fairly useless life skill, she then did a Master's in Magazine Journalism at City, University of London.
