  Veronica Simpson

Co-Founder – Magnificent Me and Co-Author of ‘From Slavery to Suffragism’

I’ve been a journalist for over 20 years now, during which I’ve written about jazz, the media, health, shopping and interior design. These days I write about design, while running around after two small and wonderful children. For kicks, I get to sing earth-shatteringly weird and wonderful harmonies with the London Bulgarian Choir.
