(Online Media industry)

October 2005 — Present (4 years 2 months)

I write topical newsletters for two industries. It involves a lot of research, writing and getting to know strange topics. My writing style is friendly, fun and cuts to the chase on the issues people are really talking about. Latest articles on the Citywealthmag.com side have been interiews with ultra high net worth clients worth from £70million to in excesss of £1billion about their philanthropy, micro finance, how they made their money and contributing factors to their success and their views on life. on the tech side, buyers of tech give us an inside look at their thought processes for buying, how they make decisions and come to sign off and what technology is in their budget for future purchase.
