Melbourne-based writer, poet and filmmaker. 

Hi, thanks for coming. Don't worry, you're not late.

Have a seat, make yourself at home

but please, keep your shoes on. 

Feel free to take a look around,

there's stories, poetry and short films here

and a collection of poems about death on the way.

See my latest published work:

I should have died.
I'm writing to find out, what now?

I've started writing a collection of narrative poems called 'Life After Near Death'. It follows my recent experience recovering from an assault that almost killed me, grieving the loss of a loved one, and the search for peace as everything heals.

 

Enter your email address to stay updated about the release, and to have some poems shared with you along the way.

Thank you. You'll hear from me.

The most recent thing 'for you to read':

A moment to read about me:

I'm a writer and filmmaker. I write screenplays, short fiction and poetry, as well as produce content (written and video) for businesses.

I also ride bikes, run long and enjoy croissants. I live in Melbourne.

And if you have time to spare...
