The Team

JOY - Founding Editor

Joy decided to set up Twelve52 after she realised that the old cliché is true - life really is too short. After years of freelance writing and editing for other companies and websites she decided to pour her know how into her own little venture and set up an online magazine, the upcoming Twelve52.com. It's time to stop dreaming and start doing.

When Joy isn't working on freelance projects, faffing around with the Twelve52.com layout on Wordpress or blogging right here, she can usually be found making smoothies, handing over her credit card details on Net-a-Porter, or attempting Pilates poses whilst watching videos of singapura kittens on YouTube.
