Biography

I'm a writer and editor with extensive experience creating commercial and editorial content for global brands across the travel industry and beyond. As well as various managing editor positions, I have spent much of my working life as a freelance writer, producing everything from destination guides and hotel reviews to marketing copy and newsletter campaigns for the likes of The Telegraph, iNews, Mr &amp; Mrs Smith, Culture Trip, BBC, EasyJet, Google and The Times.

I spent a decade living and working in Mallorca, and have written widely on the Balearic Islands. I am now living on the Costa Brava, in a town called Begur, which I am growing increasingly familiar with and fond of.
