I predominantly cover entertainment, lifestyle, pop culture, mental health, grief and women's issues for digital and print publications such as Wonderland, Dazed, Stylist, Rolling Stone, The Guardian, British GQ, The Daily Beast, Insider, Fandom, Inverse, The Telegraph, Cosmopolitan, i and Refinery29.

From 2020-2023, I was also one of the lead writers at the quarterly print publication, The Happy Newspaper.
Alongside this, I've spoken on podcasts, festivals and panels at the BFI and Good Grief Festival, as well as appeared on various radio shows for BBC Radio 5 Live, BBC Radio Scotland and BBC Radio Cambridgeshire.
When I'm not writing, you can catch me watching the latest Marvel movie, reading a YA novel (or re-reading Jane Austen), spinning, or out on adventures. I'm still writing my young adult fantasy novel too, so watch this space...
