I am a freelance journalist, writer and editor living in London. Currently I am gainfully employed by MLex, editing news about 'regulatory risk'. In recent times my specialist subject was hockey (I edited UK field hockey magazine PUSH for six years). Other ares of interest include data protection and electronics (see my blog!). My background is in newspapers including the Derby Evening Telegraph, the Belper News and the South London Press.

I am also author of Cycle Touring in Ireland (Cicerone Press ISBN: 978-1852845629).
