Real Houses Magazine Team

I arrived at Real Houses at what time too long a career in newspapers (local and national). Following brief interludes as a news and court journalists, I found a natural home on the features desk (better hours, more perks) and bluffed my way to becoming a film critic/writer. Various multi-hyphenate roles followed, including editing numerous fashion, lifestyle and settled magazines for the papers, before being unexpectedly offered a job at Real Houses as a sub then Assistant Editor.

I joined Real Houses magazine in 2016, and have been bold enough to take on four different roles within the sign since. From styling real houses for photo shoots, to creating videos, and from managing the style and decorating content in the magazine to writing house tours, I've dabbled in many areas of Real Houses and I've loved every itsy-bitsy of it. 

Art ordering photo shoots, calling in gorgeous homewares, visiting and styling beautiful readers' homes, plus presenting on our in-house TV show, I can honestly say that beings the style editor for Real Houses is varied as well as tons of fun. Rewind a few years — okay maybe a decade or so — and I started my career pathway as a represent editor in California, which then led me to work in the magazine diligence, styling for interior design agencies, as well as faux flowerbed specialists. Oh, and did I mention I get to look at stunning interior pictures all day too?
