About me

I'm a writer and editor from the Wirral, just a 20-minute Mersey Ferry away from Liverpool, England. Since I was a kid I always wanted to write for magazines and consumer publications. My first break in newsstand publishing came in 2007 when I took a job at Future Publishing. For the next eight years I contributed to over 30 popular print magazines and online brands before choosing a freelance career in 2013.

Most of my writing these days covers technology (MacRumors, for instance), but I'm happy to wax editorial about anything that interests me, from the latest trends in biomedical science to the mysteries of ancient history. Check out my Portfolio page for some examples of my published work.

I like to read up on all sorts of topics, and occasionally write fiction whenever I get inspired by a good novel. I'm also a keen runner and completed the Bath half-marathon in 2013, raising £1,000 for Rape Crisis in the process. As the photo suggests, I'm also a bit of an LFC fan, although oddly I've been to Camp Nou more times than I've been to Anfield.

Wacom Bamboo Spark

ImagineFX – February Issue 131

The Wacom Bamboo Spark is a folio notepad that automatically digitises handwritten notes and sketches, and stores your inspirations in the cloud. I reviewed the device for ImagineFX and the piece can now be found online over at CreativeBloq. You can find my more personal look at the Wacom Bamboo Spark here.
