Thanks for visiting.

I first cut my teeth as a journalist in 2020, starting out as an intern and then features writer at The Mill, the award-winning newsletter covering Greater Manchester. Part of Mill Media Co., I also wrote stories for The Post and The Tribune.

There I was able to pursue my passion for photography (I shoot on a Nikon D7100 and Nikon Z6 with 50mm, 18-200mm and 28mm lenses) and write impactful and narrative-led stories: these included my investigation into an unseen death; how reborn dolls helped a Rotherham man with cerebral palsy (£); and a co-reported investigation into a Sheffield church accused of ‘gay exorcisms’ (£).

Never one to shy away from danger, one of my favourite pieces involved hanging out with teenagers in a notoriously anti-social spot in Manchester city centre. I also rambled around an ancient woodland in Wigan; that writing was published in the anthology North Country by Saraband Books in 2022 (shortlisted in Lakeland Book of the Year 2023). My favourite assignments involved delving into art, literature, and history. You can access my selected writing here.

I’m not up to many adventures these days as I’m now a full-time B2B hack covering the automotive industry. I sporadically send out my Desk Driving newsletter, which rounds up interesting work-related things.

When freelancing, I enjoy writing first-person features and short stories. I’ve appeared in some form in Refinery29, The Guardian, Architects’ Journal, BBC Good Food, and Ordinary Zine.
