In 2021, I spent a few months as the content and media manager of an aviation training facility where I created a news page on the academy's website and wrote a number of features on industry affairs.

 

My titles ranged from,"The Transatlantic Travel Corridor: Who Wants It And Why?" to "Redundancy, Boredom and Isolation: Welcome to The Not-So-Glamorous Lives Of Grounded Flight Attendants During The COVID-19 Pandemic". 

 

I boosted engagement on the facility's online platforms during a challenging time for the aviation and aerospace industries.

 

I arranged and oversaw for BBC Three Counties Radio to film the facility and produce a radio broadcast on how its practical teaching had been moved online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I also made arrangements for record-breaking pilot Travis Ludlow to sit down for an interview with me, and pitched an article about the facility's impact on the local economy to a community newspaper.

 

On a daily basis, I interviewed industry professionals from flight attendants to aircraft engineers on an array of subjects, and created social media content by filming facility tours, explainers, or simulator tutorials. I'd track audience engagement through Google Analytics and individual social media channels. 

 

As a financial technology news reporter for WatersTechnology, I reported on news and trends in the equity and fixed-income markets.

 

I interviewed senior executives, technologists, and other C-suite professionals at high-profile technology, finance, and data companies or exchanges for stories. I conducted my own research, pitched original story ideas on a weekly basis, and worked closely with an editorial team spread across London and New York to uncover news.

 

To elevate stories, I interviewed academics, researchers, consultants, and subject matter experts to learn about technological or financial developments and gain third-party perspectives. I frequently attended press receptions, news conferences, roundtables, and briefings all around the City—while keeping on top of a number of trusted contacts, responsibilities, deadlines, and the changing financial news cycle and agenda.

 

I also wrote the publication's weekly news-in-brief newsletter.

 

I applied my investigative eye to pieces and worked through FOIA requests, government databases, financial reports, earnings calls, transcripts, and archives for stories.

 

I wrote exclusive stories on financial technology giants like; Bloomberg, London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), Google, Nasdaq, Symphony Communications, Amazon, Appital, Microsoft, SS&C, FactSet, MarketAxess, Blue Prism, and SmartStream, and interviewed executives from IBM, Fidelity International, London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), Net Purpose, Aquis Exchange, Bloomberg and MSCI—and I worked on subjects like; artificial intelligence, machine learning, natural language processing, regulation, financial crime, economic sanctions, data, cloud computing, indices, interoperability, consolidated tapes, trade settlements, software management systems, automation, derivatives, market liquidity, ESG, and gender-based discrimination.

 

During my time at WatersTechnology, I was named one of LSEG's 'relevant journalists' and was kept in the know because of that. Many of my stories were featured in the publication's 'most read' section, with some becoming the number one 'most read' story for a period of time. 

​

As a digital journalist and content producer at LBC and LBC News at Global's London studios I wrote breaking articles on the top stories of the day: from the death of Queen Elizabeth II to the cost of living crisis, from the Mahsa Amini protests in Iran to Liz Truss' short premiership, multiple NHS strikes and the crash in the value of pound sterling. I also wrote pieces that hit on social themes including classism, racism, and immigration.

 

I worked on the shows of high-profile broadcasters like Rachel Johnson, Sangita Myska, Matt Frei, David Lammy, Andrew Marr, Nick Ferrari, Lewis Goodall, and James O'Brien—sometimes live from the studio as a show aired.

 

I'd pitch to and work closely with producers, editors, and the extended LBC team.

 

In 2022, official statistics named LBC the UK's number-one commercial talk brand, drawing in millions of listeners per week. Global is (at the time of writing) the largest commercial radio company in Europe.

 

I am currently a Life and Trends reporter at Newsweek's London bureau, with a specialist beat in relationships and its intersection with technology. 

 

My current focus is on pitching, flagging and writing trending stories, profiles, case study-led articles and human-interest features on a variety of topics ranging from relationships, pets, technology and personal finances to health, work, travel, fashion, entertainment, family dynamics—and any hot topic trending in the cultural zeitgeist.

​

I have covered current affairs, social issues, and lifestyle stories extensively.  

 

My Newsweek features cover diverse ground from sexual assault to generational conflicts and offbeat story concepts. I also write on science and news topics. I've filmed video interviews and video content for some of my features and have appeared on Newsweek's social media platforms. Several of my self-pitched features have appeared in its premier print magazine, which has been in publication since 1933, and on the front page, homepage or 'Editor's Picks' section of the publication's website.

 

On a daily basis, I communicate with subject matter experts, digital creators and public figures while hunting for new cultural trends, viral content and topical stories to platform.

 

My team use social media platforms as a means to gather global news and lifestyle stories, making us instrumental in helping legacy and establishment media make inroads on platforms like TikTok and Instagram to connect with wider audiences.

 

My stories at Newsweek get read by between 1.8 and 4.8 million people per month—with some stories being viewed over one million times. I've amassed a large audience at Newsweek and on multiple occasions have been one of the 'most read' writers at Newsweek, with the publication's 'top performing' or 'top trending' story for a period of time. I have written more than 2,000 stories for Newsweek since joining the media brand in 2023, with several of my original pieces being copied or picked up by competitors.

 

In 2024, Newsweek was named the fastest-growing English language news website in the world, according to Press Gazette.
