Writing was always my calling, but I took the long road to do it for a living, ignoring my inner yearnings, instead serving in retail, administration, and insurance broking. No experience is irrelevant, in my belief.

I volunteered for any writing opportunities in every role. Reports and policies – let’s do it.  Spare time was spent writing for pleasure. Poetry. Short stories. Spoken word. Special occasion speeches – I was your gal (speaker, ghostwriter, proof/editor).

Family and friends said they loved getting my emails when I lived abroad.

The Public Service in a departmental Secretary’s office gave me my break in offering me a secondment with the communications division.

That opportunity changed everything. 

In 2018 I completed a Professional Writing and Editing Diploma at RMIT to develop and formalise my skills. 

Alongside the manifold of companies, products and services I’ve written freelance for, I’ve led communications campaigns across non-profit, state and local government, including the award winning food waste recycling program for Glen Eira City Council (the first in Melbourne).

And because I love a fetching hat with many feathers garnishing the side, I’ve also trained in Hatha Yoga and Attunement Therapy.

I’m Perth-based and available internationally.
