Hiya I'm Sophie,

 I'm a 23-year-old journalism graduate with a passion for story-telling in all its forms. As a freelance journalist specialising in features, I'm keen to tell my own and other people's stories through my words, photos and videos.

​

Whilst studying my MA in journalism I completed a six week placement at The Irish News, in October last year I was invited back to work for the paper on a full time basis. During this time I have sourced, written and produced a wide range of features, news stories, opinion columns, food reviews and other content which have been published online and in print. 

​

This little corner of the internet captures some of the highlights from my career so far. 

​

Alongside spending too much time in fictional worlds, I'm also a dog-lover, day dreamer, shower singer and massive foodie. In my free time, I enjoy creative writing - my poetry anthology Growing Pains was published in October 2023 and is available to buy on Amazon. I also enjoy spending time with my friends and family.
