Who am I?

Creativity and communication are key factors in today’s online and blog rich world. In a race for having unique writing across different medium, it is essential to have content stand tall. With a huge passion for writing and a flair for originality and creativity, I am looking to expand on my knowledge and experience in a writing role for a growing company.

I currently work alongside a marketing team to create dynamic content, reaching our customer base with online campaigns and to increase SEO for our company website. I have direct experience in overseeing marketing campaigns; e-shot, mail-shot, exhibitions/conferences and analysing the company’s return on investment.

In my spare time I currently write for an online magazine for news, feature articles and reviews, as well as explore my creative writing with poems and short stories.

a bit about me…

I have an avid interest in the video games industry and enjoy writing articles of current news that is of interest to the gaming community. I have been given free games to conduct reviews of and have been invited on two online podcast shows from America. As a result, I have amassed a social media following that I continually engage with when exploring my interests.

I am currently writing a children’s novel that, if I have the courage, I hope to publish one day.

Overall, I have a personal interest in 1980s/90s pop culture, the film industry, creative storytelling, fictional writing and am currently reliving my childhood and finding my second innocence through my children.
