I'm experienced in online journalism, including establishing, developing and managing interactions with online communities and using the latest online storytelling techniques. I enjoy exploring new journalism tools, platforms and technologies.I have expanded my skillset to include marketing and communications, by taking up the post as marketing manager at community-owned Bramley Baths in Leeds, leading all aspects of internal and external communications.I spent four years as a lecturer on the BJTC accredited (BA Hons) Journalism and Digital Media course at Hull School of Art and Design and have guest lectured in Digital Journalism at University of Leeds, Leeds Trinity University and Leeds Metropolitan University.
