As part of the Kickstart scheme (thus making this opportunity the only good thing Rishi Sunak has ever done for the UK), I was Editorial Assistant for the HudsonBec Group’s creative careers platform, Creative Lives in Progress, from May to November 2021.

As well as interviewing many of the UK and beyond’s brightest things within the creative industry, I ran their weekly newsletter on MailChimp and created social media posts for them on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and TikTok. I also worked on brand integrations with the likes of M&S, Paul Smith and Burberry.

I continued to freelance for them after the scheme, most recently helping to curate a selection of potential candidates for Google USA’s Creative Labs programme.
