I'm a writer, editor and consultant based in London with over a decade of experience spanning print and digital media. My work focuses on art, photography, design and culture, with an interest in telling stories of change, sustainability and climate justice. I’m also passionate about championing underrepresented talent and working-class creatives, using my platform to spotlight voices often overlooked in the creative industries.

Currently, I’m the deputy editor of both Port and design magazine Anima, overseeing the editorial output across the print and online editions. For tips, projects and ideas, feel free to reach me at ayla@port-magazine.com. For freelance commissions or other opportunities, contact me at aylajangelos@gmail.com.

My writing has appeared in titles such as i-D, Dazed, It's Nice That, WePresent, AnOther, 1 Granary, D&AD, Epoch, Useless Fighters, One Magazine, Crafts, Sixteen Journal, Creative Boom, Creative Lives in Progress, Whitelies, Coeval, Exit Magazine, SixtySix, The Brand Identity among others. I've penned nearly 1,000 articles for It's Nice That, which can all be read here; and everything I've written for Port can be read here.

I've also worked with a number of brands and platforms on copywriting, strategy, consultancy and research, including Adobe, Apple, Lenovo, Chanel, Ace & Tate, Anyways, It's Nice That, Directors Library and Carpenters Workshop Gallery. I'm open to paid opportunities, please get in touch if you'd like to discuss.
