About Me

I graduated the University of Sussex with a first class degree in Media Studies, gaining a high first in both final year dissertations. I went on to enjoy a successful year-long internship at MTV before being offered a journalism role at Yahoo Celebrity UK following one week's work experience.

During my first nine months at Yahoo Celebrity I doubled the official Twitter account's followers to more than 110,000 by utilising my extensive knowledge of social media, fandoms and SEO, the Twitter page currently has over 120,000 followers.

I have a proven ability to write witty, engaging and relevant articles that generate thousands of clicks as well as extensive social media interaction from both our Twitter and Facebook followers.

I have also organised, conducted and written multiple celebrity exclusives with high profile stars, including Kourtney Kardashian, Jesse Eisenberg, Cyndi Lauper, and One Direction.

As well as writing celebrity news, features and exclusives, I also review theatre shows and have experience writing travel features.

I am available for freelance or contracted work and would love to hear from you!
