Emma McAndrew
I am an ambitious and versatile journalist with a strong interest in Scottish affairs and local news.
My background in broadcast journalism has shaped me to be a multi-skilled and technically proficient reporter, with experience working independently on location or collaboratively in a busy newsroom. I have worked as a Senior Journalist at That's TV where I supported and delivered local television news bulletins across five Scottish regions.
I have previously been a deputy editor for the award-winning online publication Empoword Journalism. Before taking on this role, I was the head of the entertainment section and have contributed a number of my own articles to the site.
I graduated from Edinburgh Napier University with a first-class BA (Hons) in Journalism in July 2023 where I developed skills across a range of platforms including TV, online and print.
