I’ve spent the best part of my life living in and around the city of York. From the age of 8, I’ve been lucky enough to explore all the country estates, attend rural shows and meet amazing people. In the colder months I’ve taken part in pheasant shoots and in the summer, explored the golf courses, forests and beaches around my home. I’ve loved it here so much that I spent my studies at University in York.

Calling York home was very important to me, not only because it taught me that pot noodles are not a sustainable diet plan. But it is where I discovered that I had a talent for marketing and branding. From running social media accounts to my internship at the University itself, I experimented with all sorts of mediums to direct my talents. I’d sit in my accommodation surrounded by all my books educating myself on how marketers and branding teams get their ideas. 

It was only when I stood back that I realised my laptop was on top of a pile of books, my tea was using an Austen novel to rest on, as well as any available wall space had some form of literature on it. Maybe, just maybe, I had a somewhat mild love for the written word. Since that day, I’ve been a copywriter.
