Founder, Editor & Journalist
Championing
Creativity
Hello, I’m Katy – journalist, editor and founding voice of Creative Boom, a leading UK-based platform that’s been celebrating and inspiring creatives since 2009.
For over sixteen years, I’ve championed those often left out of the conversation, shining a light on the makers, dreamers, and doers shaping art, design and visual communication across the world.
About Me
Founding editor, journalist, and creative champion.
With over 25 years in media and communications, I started out in radio – first regional, then national – before co-founding Boomerang, a PR and digital consultancy in Manchester.
In 2009, I launched Creative Boom to support struggling creatives. What began as a side project has grown into one of the most widely read platforms in the creative industries, reaching over a million people each month.
Today, it’s my full focus where I’m dedicated to championing artists and designers worldwide.
