About me
I write about nature for curious kids.
I write true stories and poems about the amazing world around us – from the trees on my street, all covered in bark, to deep sea creatures that glow in the dark.
You can read my poems in Countdown (published by The School Magazine) and Right Way Down and other poems (published by Fremantle Press & Alphabet Soup Books).
My poem for grown-ups, ‘Short and Sharp’, was Commended (6th place winner) for the Creatrix Poetry Award 2024.
I am studying Professional Writing and Publishing at Curtin University.

My work experience
I’ve been paid to babysit, iron clothes, sell socks and use a walkie-talkie on Christmas day.
I spent over 14 years working in the non-profit sector. I got lots of practice explaining things like community housing rent setting policy to all kinds of people.
Now I work with engineers, copyediting and proofreading their marketing documents like bids, proposals and tender responses.
In all of these jobs, I have learnt to explain complex ideas so they’re easy to understand.
