About ME

My first published work was a haiku about kittens, aged ten. I’ve been working (and playing) with words ever since, from freelance feature writing to a three-year stint as editor of two magazines, corporate communications and in-house communication roles. Through all type of communication, my focus remains the same: providing clear, concise, compelling copy aimed squarely at its audience, with warmth and humour to keep it interesting.

CAREER HIGHLIGHTS

My primary school poetry skills gained me entry to a writing degree, after which I spent five years working at the iconic Australia outdoor magazines Wild and Rock, including three years as editor. I write about things I love, among them nature, adventure and family. My work has been published in a wide range of digital and print publications, including the ABC, Age/SMH, the Australian, Australian Geographic, GALAH, Kidspot, Outdoor Australia, Qantas Magazine, Sunday Life, Sunday Telegraph, Voyeur and Wild.
