Before we start your story here’s mine, to help you decide if I’m the scribe for you.

I knew I was destined to be a writer when I developed an early-age fascination with pens. To this day, I find some of my best ideas come from a good old-fashioned brainstorm with a novelty notebook and a fancy Biro (and yes, I definitely own far too many of both!).

I’ve been writing for more than 20 years. As a journalist I’ve written for The New York Times, The Sun, the London Evening Standard, Woman & Home and Stylist. As a copywriter, I cut my teeth working at the UK military charity, Help for Heroes.

Writing for the charity’s supporters, volunteers, corporate partners and veterans taught me how to find the right words for very different audiences. By the time I left four years later, I was hooked on the craft.

Since going freelance in 2021, I’ve written for clients across more sectors than you can shake a fancy fountain pen at, including mental health, employee wellbeing, finance, education and law.

I live in Sheffield in South Yorkshire and spend my spare time scribbling ideas for novels on post-it notes and fussing over other people’s dogs (pet-sitting is my side hustle, which you can read more about here).

Last but not least, if we work together, I’ll obviously be assigning a shiny new notepad and pen to our project!
