I’m a senior writer, editor and marketing communications specialist based in Tauranga, Aotearoa New Zealand, who has recently moved back into communications following 20 years in journalism. 

Alongside freelancing for a range of commercial clients (for whom I produced PR/marketing collateral, and editorial, advertorial, web and social media content, as well as editing book manuscripts and stuff), during these two incredibly creatively and professionally fulfilling decades, I spent most of my time on staff and freelancing for magazines and other publications in Auckland, Tauranga and Sydney. My work has been published in InStyleFashion QuarterlyMiss FQMetroNorth & SouthSunday, NZ Listener, Homestyle, Home NZ, Your Home & Garden, Woman’s DayNZ Woman’s Weekly, Australian Womens WeeklyNew Idea, Next, Simply You, Woman, Cleo, Girlfriend, NZ Geographic, NZ Gardener, Life & Leisure, ScoutTogether Journal, NZ Weddings, Cuisine, Toast, Remix, Mindfood, Good Health, ThriveNZ Womens Health, Kia Ora, UNONZ Marketing, Farmlander, Hospitality Business, the New Zealand Herald (plus its inserts Viva, Canvas and so on) and the Bay of Plenty Times, and across various online platforms, including BusinessDesk. I’ve brought together some of my favourite stories here.
