I'm a journalist and researcher from London, now living in York. I am an Investigations Reporter at The Guardian.
I previously worked as a Politics Reporter for Insider.
As a freelance, I wrote for Private Eye, the Times (and its diary), the Sunday Times, the Guardian, Business Insider, the Evening Standard Diary, the New Statesman, WIRED, BuzzFeed, The Fence, Scram News, the Daily Telegraph, the Spectator, Byline Times, CityMetric, and others.
I mostly write about politics and the media, but cover other fields too.

I was a researcher to Michael Crick on One Party After Another, a biography of Nigel Farage, published in January 2022 by Simon & Schuster.
I was a researcher for Left Out by Gabriel Pogrund and Patrick Maguire, published 3rd September 2020 by the Bodley Head.
Until May 2025, I was the Secretary for the Parochial Church Council for St Lawrence, York. I assisted with a significant organ restoration and installation project. I do bits and pieces of PR/media consultancy on a voluntary basis for the church, as well as bits of tech support.
