Since starting a football blog during my studies, I have worked with numerous outlets, including Sports Betting Dime, BetMGM, Betting Expert, RadioTimes.com and Football FanCast. I primarily cover Premier League football, NBA and MLB. I can also write about cricket, NFL and Formula One. Through working with different sites, I have produced everything from news articles to in-depth features, which has helped me to develop my writing style. It has also helped when needing to adapt to different requirements. At times, I have had to work to tight deadlines, quickly getting articles ready after breaking news. Other tasks have been longer-term, requiring time management to provide all of my work to a high standard by its due date.

My brother and I started Franchise Sports in early 2018. Initially writing the vast majority of the content myself, the site grew considerably and we eventually built a team of writers. I developed an SEO strategy, planned content and managed our writers. The site has enjoyed consistent growth over the last few years, averaging north of 150,000 views per month.

I first worked for 888Sport in 2016. Contributing features and betting previews for their blog, I pitched topics across various sports, including European football, cricket, Formula One, basketball and baseball. I eventually became a regular contributor, providing a wide range of content from short tips articles to keyword-driven copy and evergreen pieces. Over my time with 888, I have adapted to an evolving content strategy. The 888Sport UK blog has also experienced significant growth in both the types of content produced and the number of visitors per month. For a couple of years, I shared duties covering 888Sport’s social media accounts on evenings and weekends.

I pitched and wrote two or three articles a week, predominantly on Premier League football. Completed over 50 articles for the site, several of which can be found on the link below.

After enrolling in Snack Media's internship program, I contributed several articles per week through the summer. Following the internship, I was offered a paid role. Through a combination of titles I pitched and topics I was given, I wrote multiple articles per day for their site. Alongside this, I had occasional news, social media and live blogging shifts during Premier League and Champions League matchdays. I also edited articles from some other writers.Working for Snack Media, I enhanced my editorial judgement and gained an understanding of how to write headlines for NewsNow and social media.

I worked for LiveWire Sport in the summer of 2016, running ECB social media accounts, updating the ECB website and contributing to live blogs for several domestic competitions.

I worked for uMAXit from the end of 2013 until the start of 2015.I wrote several articles about the Premier League for their blog and monitored their social media accounts.
