A Few Career Highlights

Twenty-six years in media, or any sector for that matter, is typically tricky to showcase. For this reason, I’ve opted to highlight just a few key career projects:

The COSMO days, 2011 to 2013
The Women’s Health days, 2014 to 2015
 

Two of the best publications I’ve worked on and teams
I’ve been part of in recent times, before so many print magazines went digital or closed down, were Cosmo (above) and Women’s Health (below).

 

Excerpt from the cover feature I wrote for the November 2014 edition of Women’s Health:

Header: High Five Yourself! Intro: What do these three inspiring women have in common? They’re successful, super-hot and they’ve all appeared in Women’s Health. So, we asked them to join our birthday campaign to remind you (and the women you love) what its good to be you…

Body copy: Here’s a little exercise: without thinking too hard, list the five things you like most about yourself – physical attributes, and others.

 

 

Then share them with the next person you see. Awkward? No surprises there. Women are often the first to downplay of overlook their best qualities – let alone talk about them openly with others. It seems to be how we’re wired. So … to mark our fifth birthday, we decided to start the High Five campaign – aimed at recognising women who live their lives well and inspire others to do the same.

 

“In the quest for greatness,
learn to rest and have fun,
not quit”.
