a bit about me…
Originally from East Sussex in southern England, I am a freelance journalist, editor and speaker living in Warsaw. I write for Deutsche Welle, the BBC, Anadolu Agency, the Daily Mirror and Politico Europe, among others, including Polityka, one of Poland’s most respected weekly current affairs magazines. I have a PhD in politics from the London School of Economics and have written three books on Polish politics.
I have copy-edited and translated for the Polish central bank, Gazeta Wyborcza, 24/7 agency, Warsaw University and others. I also teach politics occasionally at Warsaw University.
