About David

I have 17 years of experience in journalism, writing, photography, and communications in both print and digital. My expertise for much of that time was in outdoor spaces such as fishing and camping, as well as a specialism in B2B communications.

I'm a flexible and adaptable freelancer with a pride on my sense of creativity. I am also always keen to broaden my skillset and believe many of my skills are transferable into different arenas. I prefer long-term partnerships rather than one-off opportunities, but I am open to discuss anything.
