About

I’m a multi award-winning journalist with a sociology background, who loves telling human-centred stories. Originally from Sydney, I made the switch to regional Australia in search of wide-open spaces and interesting characters. I have worked across four different states in broadcast, print and digital media and have experience across the corporate, not-for-profit and community sectors. I'm passionate about supporting others, particularly women, and love being part of Australia's dynamic arts and media industry.
