Before joining The Times, Nick was a senior social producer at Hypebeast, where he specialized in photography, videography and branded content. There, Nick captured, edited and designed a wide range of fashion, celebrity and lifestyle content, crafting it into immersive stories for millions of followers on social and editorial platforms. Nick has covered the Olympics, the Sean Combs trial and various tech launches, and he's excited to bring his passion for both features and news to The Times.

Please join me in welcoming Joanne and Nick.
