About me

My names Alex McCarthy and I'm a 27-year-old Sports Journalism graduate who is also an NCTJ qualified journalist, who's most recent role was working as a sports content writer/copywriter for Kaizen Internet Enterprises.

A little bit about me: I gained a 2.1 BaHons in Sports Journalism from Southampton Solent University and also an NCTJ award from Lambeth College in London. I can perform shorthand at 80 words-per-minute and have well respected magazines and newspapers under my belt for experience.

I have spent time on the sports desk at the Watford Observer and supported staff writers for the UK's biggest football magazine 'FourFourTwo'. I have also appeared as a betting expert on the web-based UK betting channel, TipTV whilst in my previous role of writing online sport content for the bookmakers Coral.
