About

Excuse me while I go all ‘LinkedIn’ for a moment: I’ve spent more than a decade working as a professional journalist, editor, copywriter, and content producer, at home and abroad — and I still can’t get enough. I wake up every day itching to find the next big story, the story that stops people in their tracks, begs them to read all the way through to the end. I write about basically everything, because I’m interested in everything. Sport, culture, lifestyle, travel, entertainment, food, science, technology — I’ve covered it all, and I love it all. Most of all I love talking to people, meeting a wide range of the human spectrum and getting a snapshot of that beautiful mosaic that is their life, and getting it on a page. But most of all, I love getting involved, getting out on the field. Doing things. First-person adventure stories. Fun, exciting, fast (but never cheap) — stories that get you invested and involved. Stories you’ll share. Stories you'll remember. I also understand brands, and I understand readers — and I know exactly how to give them both what they want. God, glad that’s over. Promise I don’t speak like that ^ in real life. Or anywhere other than this website. Anyway, need a writer? Let’s talk. Bylines: The Guardian, The Age & Sydney Morning Herald, VICE, PEDESTRIAN.TV, The Japan Times, Time Out, Broadsheet, International Traveller, Gizmodo, Kotaku, Lifehacker, The Chainsaw, Fandom, Junkee, MTV, Beat Magazine, Jetstar Magazine, Concrete Playground, Business Insider, and many more.
