In 2015, if you’d told me that in three years time I’d be living in Australia, I wouldn’t have believed you.
After graduating from the University of Cambridge with a II.I in English Literature in 2015, I was working as a journalist. My articles were published in The Mail on Sunday, The Guardian, i-D, The Independent, Suitcase Magazine and Culture Whisper.
Then, summer 2016 changed everything. I spent two months working as a travel blogger for Star Surf camps in Moliets, France and later in Cantabria, Spain before returning to London to join a graduate scheme at FleishmanHillard Fishburn, one of the UK’s top ten PR agencies. Over the course of the summer, and the ensuing graduate scheme, I realised that what I really loved was writing and the challenge of creating content.
With this goal, and my love of the ocean and the outdoors, I relocated to Cornwall to work as an Account Manager for a media agency in Newquay. I witnessed the creative process behind marketing campaigns from start to finish, worked with and created content for a wide variety of clients from a range of industries, and I completed a course in SEO so that I could improve upon the agency’s offering to clients.
Yet writing still wasn’t the main focus of my role and at the end of the year, I decided to go freelance. Since then, I’ve worked with a variety of exciting clients, from travel companies, to technology start-ups, and have also started writing about travel and adventure for travel publications Matador Network and Pen and Trail while travelling all over the world.
At the moment, I’m continuing my travel writing and work with brands to help them shape their tone of voice and carve out a unique brand identity. I’m also particularly interested in working with brands that focus on sustainability and supporting the environment.
If you have a project you think I would be interested in, I’d love to hear from you. Please email me at:
