About me

I’m a British journalist based in Bangkok, specialising in global health security issues. My work focuses on topics including infectious disease, development policy, rights abuses, security and conflict.

I began working with the Telegraph in 2018, and have now reported from roughly 20 countries for the newspaper – from Borneo to Brazil, Madagascar to Myanmar, Somaliland to Singapore. In January 2020, I was one of the first journalists in the UK to report on a ‘mystery virus’ in China, and spent much of the subsequent years covering every element of the pandemic. Since I moved to Thailand in 2023, I’ve also been reporting on Southeast and East Asia more broadly, with reports on geopolitics, defense policy and regional elections.

My work has been frequently recognised. Most recently, in 2024, I was the gold award winner in the International Affairs category at the MPH Group '30 under 30' awards, for my articles on Thai hostages in Gaza, divorce laws (or the lack thereof) in the Philippines, and rights abuses on fishing boats in southeast Asia. In 2025, I also was invited to spend a fortnight at Georgetown University, where I took part in seminars exploring Global Health Security and Diplomacy.

I am predominantly a print journalist, but have also taken part in the Telegraph’s Battle Lines podcast, and appeared on LBC and RTE radio. I also moderate panels and events.
