A 23 year old consumed in a life of travel. I first started when I was 19 with the idea and motivation of finding myself in this big, cluttered world. I havent been able to sit down since! Along the way, I have found my passion for photography and writing. Using personal aspiration and emotion with knowledge in a some what, poetic way. As my learning develops, I hope to some day apply all my understanding in a career of photojournalism.

I am a recent Graduate from Edith Cowan University in Perth. I majored in Journalism and did a minor in Public Relations. After a decent break from study it was a bit of a struggle at first, but it was something that I thrived on throughout the journey. From getting to know people from all sorts of backgrounds and ages, to learning about a craft I have a major passion for it was a fantastic last three years.I have a passion for all things music with an interest in many different genres. I greatly look forward to writing about all forms of music for The Australia TImes.
