Life is all about embracing your passions and developing your skills. With writing I can do both.
As a skilled and innovative professional writer I know that writing must have personality and a character of its own to remain relevant. With my years of practical experience I know how to craft stories that excite and entice. I know how to authentically convey a unique tone of voice, and I can drive the reader to pursue a desired course of action.
When not writing I can be found screaming at the top of my lungs at a Western Bulldogs game, frequenting one of the many cafes in Melbourne's Inner West, or looking with envious disgust at the latest attempt to re-invent the burger.
WEBSITE CONTENT
Interest rates article designed to educate customers about the different types of interest encountered in various NAB products. Developed as a result of a content gap analysis when compared to competitors in the banking industry.
Credit Card Offer page I wrote the copy and metadata for that was created for marketing purposes.
Customer information page I oversaw the updating of as a part of the International Payments uplift project. This involved merging two similar pages into one and ensuring all onsite information was accurate, optimised, and accessible.
ADVERTISING COPY
This is an apartment listing I wrote when my partner and I sold our apartment. I consulted with the real estate agents to make sure it met their tone of voice and complied with industry standards.

PROSE
A semi-autobiographical story recounting one of the many Friday nights my friends and I might have had. Based around my youth in Altona Meadows, a suburb in Melbourne's West.
A short story that recounts a turbulent period in my life. Originally written as a form of catharsis, it was a bonus that it developed into a coherent story.
A script I produced to be submitted to the true crime podcast Casefile. Based on the mass shooter Elliot Rodger this required a lot of research from a wide variety of sources including police reports, news articles, and videos.
