Estrella Dalton is a skilled technology writer, editor, and advocate for digital safety, known for her clear, approachable style and commitment to helping everyday users navigate the online world with confidence. Since joining VPNOnline.co.uk in 2025, she has focused on producing in-depth reviews, practical guides, and insightful articles on privacy tools and secure browsing. Estrella’s career began far from the tech industry, in the riverside city of Luang Prabang, Laos. Growing up in a community of storytellers, she developed a talent for clear communication and a genuine interest in how people connect and share information. After moving to the UK as a teenager, she earned her BA in Journalism from the University of Sheffield, where she served as features editor for the student newspaper and created a popular column exploring technology’s impact on everyday life. She went on to become features editor at Games & Leisure Monthly, interviewing software developers, security experts, and innovators in the digital entertainment space. Her work stood out for making technical subjects understandable without oversimplifying. Later, she stepped back from full-time media to focus on raising her family, while continuing to write and contribute to community projects on online safety, digital literacy, and responsible internet use. When she returned to the industry in 2025, Estrella brought a unique combination of editorial expertise and first-hand experience to VPNOnline.co.uk. She now reviews VPN services, analyses industry trends, and writes accessible guides designed to help readers protect their privacy, secure their data, and make confident choices about the tools they use online. Her work is characterised by warmth, clarity, and accuracy. Whether she’s explaining encryption protocols, comparing server coverage, or breaking down the pros and cons of different VPN apps, her priority is always to put the reader first. Outside of work, Estrella lives in Kent with her husband and three children. She enjoys hiking coastal trails, experimenting with new recipes, and hosting competitive board game nights for friends and family.
