I’m both an award-winning editor and a widely published writer.

How did I come to work in these two professions at the same time? 

In 2012, I’d been working as a university-trained editor for six years when, as senior editor at the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners, I discovered we needed a writer. I stepped up, fell headfirst in love with writing and haven’t stopped since.

To date, I’ve authored hundreds of articles, reports, papers and interviews – including prized interviews with Mark Zuckerberg’s dad and Nobel Prize nominee Dr Catherine Hamlin.

These days, I write regularly for the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, as well as other high-profile clients including engineering firms, superannuation funds and small businesses.

I continued to work in-house as a professional editor in a range of senior roles until 2017. My extensive hands-on experience in all types of editorial work now benefits my Textshop clients.

 There have been a number of publishing awards along the way too. As project editor and senior editor on the eighth edition of Cookery the Australian Way, I was beyond excited when it won a major national award. This much-loved book has sold more than one million copies over its lifetime, and is one of Australia’s most-loved cookbooks.

Also, I believe I’ve proven that if you deliver exceptional work, you attract extraordinary clients.
