I am an award-winning freelance journalist with more than a decade of news and features experience in web and print. I started as a news reporter on The Big Issue, Eastern Eye and The Times before becoming deputy news editor for www.communitycare.co.uk, where I won the Howard League for Penal Reform Media award and was shortlisted for the Press Gazette Exclusive of the year. I have taught at Kingston University since 2010 and developed new courses in multimedia journalism.
