Hey there! I’m Amanda, or Mandy — a creative storyteller, content strategist, and all-around digital enthusiast.
Beyond the screen, you’ll find me hyper fixating on the latest true crime or pop culture documentary, exploring London’s food scene, or curating the perfect playlist.
Here, you’ll get to know me better — what I do, what I love + more. Let’s dive in!
