I have edited leading travel and lifestyle publications in London and Tokyo.
From sourcing writers, commisioning articles, proofreading, editing, design, dealing with advertisers, clients, distributors, printers, interns and working into the early hours on a regular basis to hit those deadlines - I've done it all. And I should add, I've loved every minute of it.
Currently I am the editor of the Haute Livingonline London section.The site receives 5,000 unique visitors a day and targets an elite and exclusive audience. I am also editor of a new quarterly and regional magazine that will be launched in September 2010. More details coming soon!

I am a freelance journalist and editor and have worked on international publications in London and Tokyo.In 2002 I moved to Japan "for a year" and had such a great time, I ended up staying for seven. There is a book or two to be written in those years, let me tell you! In Tokyo I was the editor of the longest serving expat magazine, The Weekender and worked alongside a women's expat publication Being A Broad. When not trying to hit deadlines, I studied Japanese, became a self pronounced expert on Japanese foods through nights spent at hundreds of izakayas and also spent a lot of time traveling throughout Asia or wherever else I could get a flight to. Feeding into this love of travel and international living, I now specialise in travel, women's travel, expat, culture, international news, Japan and Asia. Back in London I worked as the editor of a series of London tourist guides while continuing to write for various travel publications. I'm a bit of an all rounder on an editorial team, from proofreading, through design, building websites and marketing campaigns—give me a role and I've done it. I am now working freelance and am continually receiving great projects and writing some fascinating features.I am always happy to receive or talk through new projects. Drop me a line and I guarantee you a friendly and positive response.
