Sophie Wyllie is the latest recruit to the North Norfolk News' team of reporters.
The 25-year-old was born in Norfolk, went to school at Thurston in Suffolk, and has a BA Honours degree in journalism from the University of Central Lancashire in Preston.

After two years on a twice-weekly paper, she joined the News' parent company Archant in September 2011 and has been working at Dereham before her move to Cromer.
Sophie has just qualified as a senior reporter and is looking forward to working in north Norfolk.
