Freelance Writer
unknown.
As a freelancer, I am constantly on the lookout for new story ideas to pitch, and ways to improve my work. One of my favourite pieces was a tour of all four of Singapore's cat cafes, for popular Singaporean pet magazine Clubpets. The research was particularly enjoyable.

job
Staff Writer, History Revealed
unknown.
Research - I conducted research for my History Revealed articles daily, and was very thorough.
Whether this meant visiting Bristol City Library or making notes while wandering around a museum,
I made sure to source information that a reader wouldn't easily be able to find on the internet.
• Representing the magazine - I travelled across the UK to conduct interviews, including Bollywood
star Ali Fazal, comedian Eddie Izzard, as well as the curators at Liverpool World Museum.
• Compiling regular pages - I produced the entire front and back sections of the magazine. This
included researching news stories, sourcing interviews, and managing the monthly crossword.

Intern
British Airways' High Life.
Story research - I trawled the internet to discover upcoming gallery exhibitions and hotel and restaurant openings, so they could feature in the print magazine. I also wrote sections of copy, such
as the Hotel and Pilot of the Month, and published an interactive quiz for the High Life website.
• Working across titles - As well as helping to produce content for High Life, I also researched some
content for Iberia's inflight magazines, Ronda and Excelente - such as a feature on Santo Domingo.
• Production - I shadowed the Editorial Assistant, and learned how she arranged photoshoots,
including liaising with tourist boards. I also attended editorial and production meetings.
