Published work and journalism
On this page are some examples of work that I have done and contributed to, while studying for my degree I have carried out valuable work experience and internship placements, including Man About Town, Vice, Dazed Digital, Nottingham Contemporary, Wales Online (Carmarthen Journal) and LeftLion. You can also find my work featured in Wonderland, Tmrw, Euphoria, Noctis, Dork, Upset, Dazed, SheBOPS, Spindle Magazine, LeftLion, Platform, 1883, Schön! and The National Student.
My duties while freelancing involve writing reviews, social commentary and opinion pieces on a variety of subjects. These tasks also involve conducting and transcribing interviews, contributing to features and news stories, pitching articles, creating research documents, devise SEO’s and stand firsts alongside editing and uploading content, as well as research and producing original content in order to keep to a specific brief with a target demographic in mind; using CMS extensively to upload copy and galleries; attending daily editorial meetings all while keeping within a tight deadline.
Alongside writing content, I have also interviewed the likes of The Game, Blackbear, Charli XCX, Mac Demarco, Madison Beer, RAYE, Tiffany Young (of K-pop super group Girls’ Generation), Circa Waves, Kojo Funds, Hardy Caprio, Jack Gilinsky, alongside many more talented individuals. Freelancing for such publications has both heightened my interest and curiosity in these sectors, as well as having taught me valuable skills and broadened my knowledge immensely resulting in winning two awards for my creative contribution to media for two years in a row.
