Publishing career
I have worked on a variety of consumer, B2B and educational titles over the past 12 years. I have also designed and developed content for motoring club newsletters, both for print and digital media. My skills include design and layout, as well as sub-editing and proofing. My past roles have included designer, art editor, production editor and production manager.

ACCA Student Accountant
I have worked on the Association of Chartered Certified Accountant's student publication for the past 9 years, and have helped take the magazine through three redesigns and rolled out online digital editions. As well as the design, layout and style of the fortnightly title’s pages, I have been involved with advertising, distribution, production duties and sub-editing, in addition to other branded ad-hoc projects.

Printing World
Think print industry and Printing World will always be associated with it. Working on the art desk of the well-respected B2B title, I designed the layout of the pages, chose the relevant pictures for stories, subbed copy and liased with both internal and external clients and stakeholders.

Freelance projects
I have also written for club and consumer titles in both the motoring and technology press. A passionate interest in both subjects has resulted in published features and works in consumer magazines such as MacUser, Web User, Volkswagen Driver and VW Motoring. I have worked on projects for major clients including Accor, Eating Inn, Elanco, Greene King, Mercure, National Blood Service, and Novotel, as well as smaller independents. My skills include design and layout, artworking, production, interactive PDF creation, publication distribution, illustrator and photographer commissioning, and sub-editing.

PoloDriver.com
The Volkswagen Owners' Club (GB) has also been a source of publication and I was also editor of the Volkswagen Polo Register Newsletter. I am currently writing and compiling content for polodriver.com, a self-published online resource for the Volkswagen Polo.

VW Polo Register Newsletter
The UK's first organisation for the Volkswagen Polo began publishing its single side A4 newsletter in 1996. I took over the design and publishing of the publication in 1999, developing it into an editorial-focused, 20-plus pages, full colour product. Using my photography and writing skills to build relationships with Volkswagen's UK and German press offices, I secured access to the company's press databases, instantly giving the title a professional look and feel.
