Welcome.

I am an experienced food journalist, web editor and content producer. I started my career as features editor for Waitrose magazine, before moving into the worlds of recipe websites and freelance writing. My work has appeared in Elle, Condé Nast Traveller, Lonely Planet, Ocado Life, Restaurant Magazine, The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Times and Sunday Times, Waitrose Weekend and the UK’s major food magazines.

Between 2021 and September 2025 I spent four years as a freelance content producer for Delicious Magazine.

My cookbook Dairy-Free Delicious (Quadrille) was published in 2015 in the UK, US and — somewhat randomly — Finland.

I have been shortlisted twice for Guild of Food Writers’ Journalist of the Year, Fortnum & Mason Food Journalist of the Year and Best Food Journalist in the Le Cordon Bleu World Food Awards.

I live in Kent with my family and extremely chatty cat, Crunchy. If you’re looking for an experienced, reliable and professional journalist or content editor for your project, get in touch.
