About Me
Hi, I’m James Pearson, a freelance journalist with a passion for storytelling in all its forms. After studying Journalism and English Literature at the University of Essex, I’ve begun carving out a diverse career spanning print, television, and radio.
My work focuses on the world of media (film, TV, and the arts) where I explore the stories that shape our culture and spark our imagination. But I’m not one to shy away from the world of sports, Politics and general news reporting. This website is my creative hub, a place where I showcase my latest projects and share my perspective on the ever-evolving media landscape. Thanks for stopping by, hope you enjoy exploring my work!
