About Me
I am a digital content producer, writer, editor and historian based in London, UK.
My 15 years’ experience researching and producing editorial content includes production for Historic Royal Palaces, English Heritage, Time Out London and Dr Johnson’s House, among others. I’m currently working as Digital Producer at Historic Royal Palaces.
I specialise in heritage and history, with my Master’s degree in Early Modern History and background in Tudor and 20th-century women’s history. I have extensive experience in search engine optimisation, copyediting, proofreading and web accessibility.
I’m very proud to be a digital accessibility advocate, with experience producing digital access resources and films.
I completed an Early Modern History MA at Birkbeck, University of London in 2022, and graduated with a BA in Journalism in 2005. I was a trustee for The Friends of The National Archives from 2023 to 2025.
If you’re interested in what I do or want to chat about a project, please do get in touch!
