About me
I have been a journalist for nearly 20 years writing news and features for regional, national and international newspapers and contributing to BBC radio and satellite TV channels such as Sky.
I have also worked in PR giving advice, media training and writing company reports and literature to various bodies and agencies including the National Housing Federation, British Gas and Sainsbury's among others. I specialise in crisis management and reactive advice but cover all areas of public relations.
Among the titles I have worked for are - The Times, Telegraph, Daily Mail, Sun, Mirror, Observer, Independent, Express plus international titles like Christian Science Monitor, Time magazine, The Australian, New Zealand Herald, South African Sunday Times - where I lived for the last four years returning in August 2011.
I am used to contributing for print, online and via social media.
I have also worked for various magazines including Estates Gazette, Inside Housing, Rugby World, Chef, Yachting World, FourFourTwo, Golf World.
All this gives me a good insight into how the modern media industry works and a vast range of contacts across the UK and beyond.
