Background

About Greig Johnston

I am a writer and editor with 15 years of experience working in both the print and online arenas. I write news stories and feature articles spanning sport, politics, crime, health, technology and entertainment, creating consistently compelling content that engages and resonates with readers. I have also worked as a sports editor, commissioning pieces from an array of contributors, and have produced tailored content for clients such as Cricket Australia, Football Federation Australia and the Australasian PGA. I worked full-time as a cameraman and video editor, and have strong image-editing and multimedia skills. My natural empathy allows me to form strong and productive relationships with my co-workers. Intrinsically motivated, I have a passion for quality journalism and strive to be the best writer I can be. I consume media voraciously and set exacting standards with my own work and the work of those around me. Prior to my journalism career, I was employed as a music teacher for a decade, which I found invaluable training in condensing ideas to their purest form and communicating them clearly.
