About

I’m a London-based journalist and scriptwriter, and I am passionate about the arts.

Journalism
I produce reviews, features, interviews, news, opinion and blogs on theatre and dance for a number of publications, including newspapers the Telegraph and The i Paper, Dancing Times magazine, and websites London Theatre, theartsdesk and TodayTix. I am also the Strictly Come Dancing blogger for the Telegraph and Dancing Times.

I previously produced the arts pages for MoveTo Town & Country and Compass magazines, covering theatre, music, dance, exhibitions and cultural events, I was the UK Editor-in-Chief for BroadwayWorld, and I’ve blogged for The Huffington Post.

I worked as a staff sub-editor for Country Life magazine for three years. During that time, I frequently contributed articles and news stories to both the magazine and the website.

I am a member of the Critics’ Circle.
