About

I have a passion for creation, for writing, video and communication.I love to meet people and hear their stories, and to retell them to others. I completed a Diploma of multimedia journalism at Macleay College in Melbourne in 2013. I studied video production and editing, radio journalism, photography, feature writing, sports writing, shorthand, media law, media ethics and news writing. I was also Co-Editor of the Colleges website, responsible for delegation of tasks and general organisation of content and direction. I completed a two month internship with Comnicate Media where I learned the basics of internet marketing advice, news distribution software, internet tools, social media solutions, and journalist/copywriter content creation. I have blogged and written online for websites for around ten years, having had over 200 articles published through various sites, including ESPN and FoxUSA, the bulk of these were football(soccer) articles though I do write about other subjects. I have complete belief in my ability.I consider myself a futurist. I am a great believer in the work of Jacque Fresco and the Venus Project. We can solve the problems of humanity, if we work together. I worked two years in Wairarapa, New Zealand as a reporter for Stuff (formerly Fairfaxmedia) supplying content to the Wairarapa News, Dominion Post and Stuff until the weekly paper I worked for was closed in June 2018. I am now a freelance media creator. Specialising in writing and filming online media.
