As the Editor for Defence IQ, I am responsible for creating insightful and engaging content for our global defence audience. My role involves overseeing event-related content, working closely with producers to develop material that supports our international conferences, and contributing to the website’s SEO strategy through keyword research and optimisation.

Before joining Defence IQ, I served as the Editor for Workplace Wellbeing Professional, where I led content strategy with a focus on employee health and wellbeing. Earlier in my career, I worked as a marketing coordinator in the luxury property sector, managing blog content, photography, and video production. I also spent two years teaching English in China and Vietnam after graduating with a bachelor’s degree in English Literature and Media Studies.
