Olivia Sheed’s Biography

Olivia Sheed is an emerging journalist, graduating from the top-rated journalism school in the UK, with a Masters degree in Film (specializing in sound recording and design). Currently based in Newcastle but willing to relocate.

She has most recently worked at What's the Best under one of the largest publishing houses in the UK, Bauer Media Group. Here she reviewed the latest tech, broke down technology for the average consumer and collated an extensive list of PR contacts.

In addition to her interest in the tech industry, she has specialisms in digital investigations, world affairs, and politics. She has written about insidious online trends, such as fake medicine and online pedophile rings.

Growing up in the North East of England, she is very in touch with the welfare issues of the area, focusing her debut documentary “Systemic Harm” on the many problems plaguing disabled people attempting to access the benefits they deserve. She spoke to several charities and affected people across the region, and hopes to make more documentaries on subjects that matter to people.
