Portfolio
Katie is an experienced reporter, feature writer, web content writer/editor/designer and UX writer.
She is also a broadcaster, though has been very remiss in not saving many examples to share with you!
Here is a small selection of past work – some links are current, some are from the internet archive.
Websites
I build, host and maintain websites using WordPress and Elementor Pro. I specialise in websites with differentiated public and members-only spaces, with different levels of access for different roles.
I ensure that users are trained to add and edit content.

I will work with you to make sure you have user-focused content and structure to support the needs of your users and your business.
Recent projects have been in the higher education sector using TerminalFour, WordPress and Sharepoint.
I helped Leeds Trinity University in the crucial last stages of their new website project, working with their developer to make sure we had the right content types, creating showcase pages, and developing a training manual for web content editors.
I then worked with Bradford College to get their new WordPress-based website live, editing the new Knowledge Base and course pages, creating training materials and providing online training sessions.
Before I went freelance, as Web Content Editor and then Senior Content Designer at the University of Bradford I constantly wrote, updated and edited web content, as well as working with our excellent developers to design new layouts, so it’s difficult to sum this up in a portfolio!
