I am a 38-year-old sports enthusiast with an honours diploma in freelance and sports journalism from LSJ. My aim is to develop my journalistic skills, attract publications and write pieces that their readers will enjoy.
I am a 38 year-old sport enthusiast, currently living in Chingford.
I grew up in Edmonton, to a working-class family. Between 2004-2007, I attended Winchester University to study Sports Studies.
After university, I set about gaining my FA coaching badges. This was greatly helped by a voluntary role, coaching in the Spurs Women development squads between 2009-2012.
Unfortunately, the recession meant that voluntary roles became a secondary focus. I spent over the next decade working in the print industry, serving a wide range of clients.
In January 2018, I welcomed my first son, closely followed by twin boys in November 2019. When the pandemic started, I was furloughed and eventually made the decision to leave the workplace to become a stay-at-home father.
I am a Spurs fan who regularly attends matches. I have become interested in sports writing through my daily consumption of sports publications and podcasts.
I recently completed a two year course in freelance and sports journalism at the London School of Journalism.
After an engaging and enjoyable process i was awarded a diploma with honours.
I now want to continue developing my writing skills and understand how articles are crafted whilst also combining my passion for sport.
Hopefully this will give me a platform to get published and write pieces that an audience will enjoy.
