Hello! I’m Leonie Mercedes, a content writer and science reporter based in London.
I write data-driven content for digital marketing clients and agencies, including reports, whitepapers and optimised blog posts.
I also write about engineering innovation and design, technology, sustainability and materials science for Ingenia, and have written about wildlife for Atlas Obscura and DK. For the past three years, I’ve written science-themed riddles for New Scientist. See some of my work here.
Subscribers to my nerdy newsletter Science, Please receive a round-up of 10ish weird and amazing things I learnt in the previous seven days. See the latest edition here.
I’m also a NCTJ-trained sub editor, and have cleaned up or checked copy for clients including Econsultancy, the British Red Cross and UCL.
