About

I am a journalist based in north London, where I am a senior reporter for Football.London, with specialisms in Arsenal, youth football and sport finance. I previously worked as a reporter for the London Evening Standard. I also have extensive experience in housing reporting, having covered major stories in the capital such as New Era. I have also written for the Independent, the Quietus and Independent on Sunday. I have spent a number of years working with political organisations, particularly on a European level and am a keen follower of UK and European political discourse. I have strong leadership skills honed through my work with the Royal Bank of Scotland and the European Youth Parliament and have significant experience working with data and analytics.
