My name's Peri and I'm a copywriter. Over the last 15 years, I’ve tackled everything from print, radio and ambient, to websites, blogs and social media. I’ve also worked with all kinds of clients: private, public, third sector. If you'd like to know more about me, here's my CV in a nutshell.

 

2007 to present: La vie freelance   

Went freelance and moved to France. Began working with a number of lovely UK-based agencies. I'm glad to say these links have blossomed into long-standing relationships. Thanks to these agencies, I've worked with all kinds of clients, from Waitrose, Clarks and O2, to the Met Police, Arriva and numerous councils. I work from home remotely, taking briefs over the phone and sending copy back via email. God bless the internet.  

 

In 2007, I also joined the (remote) sub-editing team at Intelligent Media (was InThePress Ltd). It's a media monitoring service that provides clients with daily news summaries.

 

2004-2007: The Barkers years

Hired by advertising agency, Barkers, in 2004. Worked on accounts such as Cancer Research UK, the Civil Service Fast Stream, McDonald's and Microsoft. Won pitches for the likes of wagamama, Historic Royal Palaces and The Big Lottery Fund. Managed the odd award too.

 

1999-2004: TCS-tastic

Joined this boutique agency in London as a graduate. I learned from the best and cut my teeth on accounts including Debenhams, Selfridges, Orange, Blockbuster and Costa Coffee.   

     

1999 B.C. (Before Copywriting) and earlier:  

BA (Hons) English Literature and an MA in American Studies.
