Words have power.
Every word shapes perception, builds trust and strengthens the emotional connection with your audience. With years of experience in national newspapers, lifestyle magazines and online publishing, I know how to tell stories that resonate and leave a lasting impression.
About Me.
I’m a British-born writer and art historian based in France. With a Masters degree in History of Art I specialise in luxury fashion writing and have contributed to Vogue, HuffPost, Marie Claire, the Independent, Selvedge among others. Alongside my freelance journalism and copywriting I lecture on art history, delivering public talks at London’s National Gallery and the International Embroidery Conference. My debut book The Art of Couture Embroidery about high fashion designers and embroidery will be available in November 2025.
Beyond writing, I regularly share my expertise in art and fashion through panel discussions, webinars and podcasts. While fashion remains my primary focus, my work extends to luxury goods, health, lifestyle, music, sustainability, cryptocurrency, NFTs, finance and MedTech. With over ten years of experience in press, marketing and brand impact, I help brands and publications tell stories that sing.
