Overview
I am currently a communications and content producer for Lauriston Girls' School, as well as a freelance editor and mentor with the Australian Society of Authors. I was a lecturer at Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) and Council of Adult Education (CAE) and guest lecturer at Melbourne University - Media and Communications. I am also a facilitator of business writing workshops, teaching the skills of basic grammar and concise, powerful business communications.
I am the author of two internationally published picture books and have edited titles for major publishing houses such as Penguin/Random House, Allen and Unwin, Hodder & Stoughton (UK), Thames and Hudson and Lonely Planet. I have also produced content for clients such as NAB, ANZ, Specsavers, Saatchi & Saatchi and ACP Publishing (Real Living, Better Homes & Gardens).
