WRITER OF AWARD WINNING STORIES, LOCAL NEWS, BUSINESS REPORTING, ADVOCACY JOURNALISM, ARTS AND CULTURE, AND MORE.
I am an experienced editor and journalist, passionate about creating copy that engages audiences. I love thinking about what will resonate with a target audience then tailoring for maximum impact. The diverse people I meet, inspire and captivate me with their stories. I seek to share authentic and compelling content that the community both wants and needs to hear.
I have written for rural and regional Victorian newspapers and have published stories in The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald, Mamamia and CutCommon. I am an experienced lifestyle features writer for Westside Living Magazine. I was editor at the Advocate.org.au, the first online news service dedicated entirely to promoting the activities of not-for-profits and charities, and Inner City News, an independently owned print and online news site for inner Melbourne.
