Writing

From 2007 to 2012 I was a London-based correspondent for Time. I crisscrossed the continent reporting on everything from the spread of HIV in Romanian slums to Norway’s progressive prison system. I also profiled celebrities like Christian Louboutin, Maria Sharapova and Doris Lessing, and covered major events like the London riots, the royal wedding and the 2012 Summer Olympics. My writing has also been published in Newsweek, The New York Times, The Financial Times, Bloomberg, Vice, New Scientist, InStyle, MailOnline, Psychology Today, Monocle, the Sydney Morning Herald, Attitude, Spear’s Wealth Management, Lonely Planet, Condé Nast Traveller, CNN.com, where I was the lead writer for the launch of CNN Style, and Billboard, where I wrote one of the magazine’s first profiles of Dua Lipa. I collaborated with John Browne, the former chief executive of BP, on the 2014 book, The Glass Closet: Why Coming Out is Good for Business. It was long-listed for FT Business Book of the Year.
