I've worked on stories as diverse as the death of Princess Diana, the Dunblane shootings, celebrity interviews, sport, human interest tearjerkers and crime backgrounders.

Since then I've written for The Herald, Herald on Sunday, the Sunday Post, The Times Scotland, the Scottish Daily Mail and The Scotsman. I've also provided content for businesses, including one of the UK's largest banks and a major energy provider and am a regular contributor to Skip Hire & Waste Magazine specialising in company profiles and recycling industry news features.
