Becks Shepherd
Becks Shepherd is an experienced health and lifestyle journalist with bylines in a wide range of digital brands and national publications, including Live Science, Fit & Well, TechRadar, The Telegraph, Stylist, the Evening Standard, OK!, Livingetc, Real Homes and Delish.
Becks graduated from Bournemouth University in 2014 with a BA (Hons) in the NCTJ-accredited degree course in Multimedia Journalism. She went on to earn the National Qualification in Journalism (NQJ), the senior level of professional competence for journalists, a year later. Becks began her career as a local news reporter, covering breaking news, court reporting and uncovering regional stories that gained national interest. In 2016, she was appointed senior digital writer at Hearst, writing articles about food, fashion, health, homes and beauty. Becks went freelance in 2019, working across editorial titles, as well as writing blogs and articles for a number of osteopaths, physiotherapists and sportswear brands.
When Becks isn't perfecting her pistol squat, practising how to do a pull-up unassisted or working on her flexibility, she’s probably signing up to a new exercise class (hello reformer Pilates!), finding her way around the tastiest brunch spots (just because) or reading.
