I am the Deputy Picture Editor for the Times of London, and I have been a picture editor for over 15 years, working for newspapers, websites magazines and a wire agency. I have a passion for photography and photo-journalism and I'm really looking forward to being part of the judging panel once again. SIPA is one of my favourite photo contests of the year, with an incredibly high standard across all categories, and I can't wait to see what this year's entrants have produced.
