Hello, I'm Kelis comms and journalism professional

I’m an arts and culture journalist with over 9 years of writing experience across newsrooms and digital publishing sites.

With a passion for online content and arts and culture journalism, such as Black British music and theatre, I’m able to write clean, engaging copy, reviews, interviews and long-form features.

I have been a prolific writer since the age of sixteen, engaging global audiences through celebrity interviews, independent magazine contributions and voluntary work at a student publication.

I have great knowledge of the arts and culture scene and am confident in pitching, editing and presenting content.

As well as having a good nose for a story, I enjoy working in internal and external-facing comms to produce meaningful hooks and original stories.

I'm currently working in press and communications, which is another brilliant expertise of mine.

 I've previously worked for The Mirror UK and have freelanced for The Sun. My work has appeared in New Wave Magazine, Labaatan and other publications.
