Publications
Both my grandfathers were great storytellers. Reading, a love of stories and a need to tell untold stories led me to write. I wrote stories and poetry before studying literature and philosophy of language at Melbourne University. I travelled the world and returned and worked in Aboriginal education before joining The Age as a journalist. I left the paper to design and publish media products that carry stories. I continue to design new media and to write for newspapers, magazines and websites.
I have 25 years experience as a professional writer, with writing skills learned across several disciplines, from poetry to journalism and public communications.
Publications include arts and literary magazines, design magazines, sports and travel magazines and state and national daily newspapers. I continue to freelance for national and state newspapers in the fields of art, design, travel, health, sexuality, cultural and political issues and general news.
As a photojournalist, I have exhibited and published a wide range of travel articles and photography, including cover shots for travel magazines, nationally and internationally.
Everyone and every organisation has stories that a good writer can draw out. I write creative content that attracts new audiences, short pithy copy and poetry, and feature articles that break news.
