What I'm looking for

I am looking for a stable content or copy role where I can produce SEO-driven and social media content, grow editorial responsibility, and balance creative work with predictable hours.

I am an experienced copywriter and journalist with over ten years of professional writing across SEO, social media, features and long-form journalism. I have written for agencies, publications and as a freelancer, producing blog posts, LinkedIn articles, paid-media copy, feature briefs and SEO-optimised content while also working with photography and basic videography.

My background includes senior features writing for industry publications, full-time agency and in-house copy roles, and several years of freelance work where I produced content ranging from 400 to 20,000 words, ghostwriting and managing social channels. I deliver adaptable writing for diverse audiences, paired with hands-on experience in content management, basic IT/office systems and multimedia production.
