"Be careful. Journalism is more addictive than crack cocaine. Your life can get out of balance."

Dan Rather

About me

I always find these things a little awkward, don’t you? Let’s pretend we’re at my house (excuse the mess), sitting at my kitchen table (actually we don’t have one of those, so imagine that too) and drinking oversized mugs of tea. You can pick between stale digestives for dunking or a chunk of chocolate cake, that I’ll say I made (but secretly bought yesterday).

Portfolio of work
