With several years of experience in various media spheres, including production services and press offices, Carrie is a full-time freelance journalist. She was the Guardian's West End Girl for a year, reporting weekly on the world of musical theatre. She currently edits Broadway World in the UK, and is a columnist for Spotlight.
Her other major passion is sport, reporting on sporting events for agencies, writing features for newspapers and websites as well as providing unique content for various sports-related websites. A long-suffering Luton Town fan, she is the author of A Brand New Bright Tomorrow - a Hatter's Promotion Diary.
She is currently studying for a doctorate and combines that with teaching undergraduates and postgraduates at several UK universities. This hands-on experience in academia, along with her service as a school governor and a Guider, means that she's also interested in education and careers issues. She was highly commended in Watson Wyatt's HR Media Awards 2008 for her freelance work on Pay magazine.
She's currently available for freelance commissions, whether it's on-site reporting, feature-writing or corporate work. She's also always happy to hear from any university department looking for a visiting lecturer in journalism, media or research methods.
Carrie even got the chance to make her West End debut in 2009, appearing as a supernumerary in Stephen Daldry's multi-award-winning An Inspector Calls at the Novello Theatre.
Carrie also contributed two essays to Illuminating Torchwood: Essays on Narrative, Character and Sexuality in the BBC Series. |
