Summary
A skilled-writer with a keen eye for detail based in the United Kingdom. Whether it's sports such as football, professional wrestling, MMA and basketball, or other areas of pop culture such as film and TV, I'm passionate about creating engaging content for a specific audience. My passion for the subjects I cover shines through in the work that is produced. I create content in a timely manner, never failing to reach deadlines, but I'm also capable of helping others with their work, proofreading and editing it before it's ready to be published.
