​Saam Hodivala, editor and founder at Shift Post, adds, “I’ve been a fan of Jo’s work for years – she has an incredible talent for invoking emotions through her edits. As a dad of two daughters, I’m not ashamed to say that the first time I saw her Lindex spot, I cried like a baby on my morning train!
