Freelance Writer
I’m a freelance writer at GoodtoKnow.
I joined the GoodtoKnow team in 2019, but I’ve been working as a freelance lifestyle writer since 2015.
Initially trained in psychology, I specialise in health and wellbeing and also write for magazines like Women’s Health, Health & Wellbeing, Top Santé and Healthy.
I originally started out in the industry as a fashion stylist and have written fashion, beauty, news and lifestyle features for a variety of publications, including Refinery29, Cosmopolitan, Yahoo, CelebsNow, Good Housekeeping and woman&home.
My free time is mostly spent tying myself up in knots at aerial yoga and hoop classes, or soutenu-ing across the dance floor at ballet.
