Journalism, cultural criticism & editorial commissioning.
Over the past 15 years, I have written more than 1,300 articles, and commissioned and edited hundreds more for Voice Magazine as the publication grew to over 2.5 million reads. Trained to NCTJ standards with a background in politics and digital journalism, my work sits at the intersection of technology, video games, live performance, and civic participation.
