From 2014-2019 I was a journalist at Bloomberg. I am now training to be a criminal barrister.
This blog dates from university when I wanted to record my work editing the student newspaper and writing for other publications. I hesitate to recommend any of it to the modern reader, with the possible exception of the national press clippings whose production was at least overseen by actual adults.
After 2014 I stopped updating this site, although I occasionally still blog about books here or on Medium.
You can contact me through the box below. In particular I’m happy to speak to anyone who, like me, is considering switching from another career to the Bar. I benefitted from a few mentors in that process and am keen to help those in a similar position.
