ABOUT ME

I've been working at Men's Health UK since 2011, throughout which time we've remained the UK's biggest-selling men's lifestyle title – a fact for which I cannot take full credit, but might try to anyway.

​

For six years, I worked on the magazine's production team, beginning my career as a junior copyeditor before climbing the ranks to adopt the role of production editor/workflow director.

​

As production editor, I was responsible for overseeing the assembly of our monthly magazine, its enhanced digital package, 10 annual supplement editions and a handful of books. That job was a lot of fun – I get a kick out of spreadsheets, problem-solving and enforcing proper use of content management systems. (No, honestly, I do.)

I was promoted to the role of features editor in 2017. That's what I do now. I could write an essay about all the wonderful projects I've been involved with since, but I imagine you'd prefer to have a scroll through the portfolio on my homepage. I could not be prouder of the work Men's Health has produced in the past three years.

​

My words have also appeared in Women's Health and Runner's World magazines.

​

Outside of my day job, I produce and host live events for Spark True Stories, the UK's first and best storytelling club. I'm very comfortable talking about myself on stage. Too comfortable, some might argue.

​

Before I joined Men's Health, I spent six months writing for my local paper down in Sussex. I didn't receive a salary, but I was allowed to help myself to tea – so long as I made a round for the rest of the team, too.
