I am a freelance writer from the United Kingdom specializing in long-form content. The majority of my work is crowdfunded and published on Medium.

My areas of interest include, but are not limited to, true crime, history, politics, and popular culture. My educational background is history and politics. I have been writing since 2002 and professionally since 2013. I have run my own successful websites using WordPress in the past, including Doctor Who Worldwide, based on the BBC TV series of the same name, and Red Revolution Media, a political website.

In 2006, I was the recipient of a prestigious American Design Award for my web design work.

Since 2021, I have been a regular contributor to FrontPage Detectives from EMG Media, and Winter is Coming, part of the Fansided network.

I enjoy science-fiction, fantasy, gaming, and a wide variety of music.
