Gabriel Evans is a full-time News and Updates Manager working in the education sector. He leads a team of editors to produce copy for email campaigns, scripts for podcasts, and informative blogs. Gabriel also works freelance as an illustrator, fiction writer, poet, and workshop leader.

Gabriel’s short story ‘True Love Forever and Ever and Ever’ won the 2015 Stoke-on-Trent Literature Festival’s Too Write contest. In 2016, Gabriel joined The Writing Squad (Squad 8) and began his degree in English and Related Literature at the University of York. He became an editor and treasurer of The Looking Glass Anthology, a creative writing collection written and published annually by UoY students; Gabriel’s poetry features in volumes 8, 9, and 10, the latter two of which he also illustrated.

Gabriel’s poetry has been selected for York’s Festival of Ideas and Durham’s The Gentian. He created artwork for the University of York’s Mental Health Day exhibition in 2018. His poetry and illustrations were included in the 2019 volume of The York-Juba Anthology, an international publication combining work from students at the Universities of York and Juba (South Sudan).

In 2020, Gabriel began working for The School Bus, an online policy and compliance support service for schools, as a Content Editor. By 2022, he had progressed to Lead Content Editor, taking on a team of his own and becoming accountable for the overall direction of content.

After The School Bus was acquired by The National College, a professional development platform for education settings, Gabriel’s responsibilities broadened to cover a wider variety of content, with a focus on promotional copywriting and research into topical issues.

Outside of his day-to-day work, Gabriel creates illustrations of drag icons from the worlds of RuPaul’s Drag Race, the Boulet Brothers’ Dragula, and beyond – visit his Instagram account @dragdoodledude to check out his latest work.
