Interview

What does it mean to be a journalist?

For me, it's about taking the stories that you're passionate about, and sharing that passion with the world. Your words paint a picture!

How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?

I love to get a sense not just for the story itself, but also the personality of the publication. Please feel free to be informal and open!

What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?

If you love writing, then write! You won't be perfect for all places, but you shouldn't let that stop you. Find your niche, and keep at it!

When's the best time to pitch you?

Honestly, whenever it's the right time for your story. I don't mind when I write, so message if you think I'm right for your publication :)

When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?

In front of the TV! I think the phrase 'binge watching' was invented for me, and I love consuming new shows. I'm also an avid gamer!
