Storyteller

Jul 2020 - Sep 2022
I am passionate about storytelling and since finishing with Zing I have worked on a few projects of my own. I have written a pilot TV dramedy script called Unbecoming that has been optioned by Sydney production company Easy Tiger and has a well known Australian actor attached. I have also written a fiction booked called Snowbird that I am in the process of editing. In this storytelling capacity I am often invited to speak at events to motivate others looking to follow creative pursuits.
