Richard Mooney

I am a recent Journalism graduate with a great passion for writing news, features, storytelling and the internet. As the current content developer for the Digital Media department of Scottish & Universal Newspapers (S&UN) and as an *award nominated creative writer I have strong web journalism skills, an imaginative approach to creating articles and an ability to work towards tight deadlines.

During my extensive tuition on the BA Journalism course at the University of the West of Scotland’s Hamilton Campus my newsgathering, news judgement and multimedia skills were refined to a quality calibre.

I have written several news and feature articles for a number of websites, including Glasswerk Glasgow, YoungScot North Lanarkshire, the Entertainment Guide, icScotland and icLanarkshire.

I am currently responsible for the administration, editing and publishing of articles for the Scottish division of Trinity Mirror’s icNetwork. This includes icAyrshire, icDumfries, icDunbartonshire, icLanarkshire, icPerthshire, icRenfrewshire, icStirlingshire, icWestlothian and the national entertainment website icScotland.
