Jamie Edkins
Deputy News Editor
Jamie graduated with a degree in Journalism from the University of Brighton back in 2020, where he also spent three years as the editor of the student newspaper.
In 2021, he made the leap into the world of motoring journalism by joining the Carwow team as a content writer for the news desk. A typical day is spent breaking the latest automotive stories, writing consumer advice guides and researching videos for the Carwow YouTube channel.
Born and raised in sunny (ish) Cornwall, Jamie enjoys nothing more than a good pasty by the coast. He’s also a big fan of fast Fords, and has a strange love for old Skodas.
