Freelance travel writer, journalist and copywriter in Bristol, UK

I'm a Bristol-based freelance copywriter and journalist with more than ten years' experience of writing digital and print copy, news and articles. I studied Journalism at Cardiff University and worked in press offices, digital agencies and PR departments before embarking on my freelance career.

I'm friendly, professional and exacting, and will help you create engaging copy for websites, email newsletters, press releases, and any other marketing materials.

I pick up new technologies quickly, and use a wide variety of software including email newsletter packages and web content management systems.

I'm also a travel writer, and run a well-established travel website called eTravel.org as well as contributing features and travel blogs to a number of other travel publications and websites. See Travel writing for further details.
