Tell us a bit about your career to date
Most of my career has been with local newspapers in various roles, ranging from reporter to editor. I also worked for a PR agency and had lots of interesting clients. In my most recent role, I was a sub editor at a daily newspaper and I loved the opportunity to be creative, whether that was with page design or cringe-worthy puns.
Tell us something interesting about yourself
I’m also known as Brown Owl. I run a Brownies unit and have 30 excitable seven to ten-year-olds under my wing. We will soon be going on our very first pack holiday, which has a Harry Potter theme, so my summer is being spent figuring out my Dumbledores from my Dobbys.
