Basketball Writer | Journalist | Insider | Editor-In-Chief

United Kingdom

I'm a basketball writer, journalist, and editor passionate about international basketball storytelling. As Editor-in-Chief at AfricaBasket, I've led long-form editorial strategy, delivered high-performing list content, and crafted in-depth interviews that have generated over 500K views across social media, giving athletes space to share their truths.

My reporting spans elite competitions such as the EuroLeague, NBA, Basketball Africa League (BAL), AfroBasket, EuroBasket, EuroLeague Women, and the Women's Basketball League Africa. I bring on-the-ground reporting experience and a sharp eye for narrative, from game reports to player profiles and feature analysis.

My work has been published by Complex Sports, The Philly Inquirer, HoopsHype, MSN, and Sporting News. I've also contributed freelance coverage for TheHoopersVoice.com, reporting on British League, FIBA, and EuroCup action and producing social-first video content.

I specialise in editorial leadership, SEO-optimised writing, digital storytelling, and cross-platform content strategy. Whether crafting match reports, player interviews, or investigative pieces, I bring a journalist's rigour and a creator's flair to every story.

With proven experience in high-pressure newsrooms and a passion for the global game, I'm ready to contribute to innovative basketball media projects across digital, print, and broadcast platforms.
