Summary
Responsible and committed journalist with a talent for writing balanced, informative and engaging articles. I have strong listening skills, an enquiring mind and the ability to build robust internal and external working relationships. My experience as digital editor for IntraFish has taught me the importance of effective communication, planning, and organization. I’m now seeking new challenges and the Senior Reporter Private Equity stood out as I have covered the industry comprehensively at IntraFish and Acuris, and it’s a field I enjoy covering.
