I’m a freelance journalist from London. I specialise in reportage about world affairs, and have reported from the ground across Iraq, Ukraine, and other European countries. My work has been published and broadcast by over 20 major media organisations including WIRED, MIT Technology Review, and BBC News.
I trained as a multimedia journalist at the UK’s #1 journalism school, News Associates, graduating with top honours in 2021. The Royal Geographical Society awarded me a fellowship the following year after I walked 450km solo across southern Iraq. I’ve trained to operate in hostile environments (HEFAT) with Advanced Tactical Resources Ltd..
