- a brief introduction...
- As Motors editor for FHM and contributor to a number of international luxury lifestyle magazines and broadsheet newspapers, my words reach many millions of readers every month. From the UK to mainland Europe, the USA, the Middle-East and Australia, I've been published in most places and the list keeps on growing. One of just 30 journalists worldwide to have driven the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, I get to experience things most only dream of and it's my job to put the reader in the driving seat. At the bottom of this page are links to some of my published work, so have a browse and get in touch if you like what you see. I'm an experienced editor and am able to offer subbing services as well as corporate copywriting. I look forward to hearing from you.
