About

I am a narrative writer specialising in story-driven content, with a focus on transforming experiences, journeys, and real-world insight into engaging written narratives.

I am currently expanding into travel and place-based writing, combining long-form storytelling, performance background, and professional travel industry experience. I have 10 years of experience working in travel-related roles, including media-forward and public-facing communication work representing sustainable tour operators at travel shows and industry events. I specialise in creating content that balances storytelling with practical information, helping readers connect emotionally and practically with destinations, experiences, and travel services.
