About

I'm a writer and content creator from Far North Queensland, Australia. I have experience writing television news scripts, radio news scripts, newspaper writing, screenwriting, and editing. I got my start as a writer for The Epoch Times Australian edition in 2008, and have rejoined the organisation in 2020 after a decade of working freelance writing, directing, and producing content for online and television. In 2020, I wrote, directed, and produced a half-hour documentary, "Wawu Divine Hope," for NITV, and received the First Nations First Draft feature film screenwriting development grant from Screen Queensland. In 2019, I was a Screen Queensland sqhub resident and completed two SQ Attachments—assisting on television series "Robbie Hood" and feature film "Monster Problems." I was also the recipient of an SQ Mentorship grant and travelled to Sydney, LA, and London in addition to being mentored by Beatrix Christian (Picnic at Hanging Rock) and Mike Jones (The Gloaming). Over the last couple of years, I have collaborated with some of Australia's best screenwriters in TV writers' rooms.
