About Me
Sydney
I am an award-winning freelance science and medical journalist and writer.
After I completed a Bachelor’s and a Master’s degree in Material Science and a PhD in Medical Science, I traded test tubes and pipettes for a keyboard. Since I hung my labcoat for good, I have taken many writing and science journalism courses through Writing NSW, the Australian Writers Centre, the Gotham Writers Institute, the University of Leeds, SciDev.Net, SCIJOURNO, and the Health Writer Hub. I have also completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Science Communication at the Australian National University, Canberra.
I am fascinated by how science affects society and the environment in which we live, how it solves mysteries and reveals solutions. I am passionate about human and planetary health, biodiversity, technology, and climate change.
I have extensive experience in specialist clinical reporting, HCP education, and plain language summaries (PLS) for HCPs and patients. I write for The Medical Republic, Healthed, and Rare Disease Advisor, among other publications.
My work has been published in MIT Technology Review, The Guardian, Cosmos, The Saturday Paper, and others.
As a content creator, I have worked with Science Custom Publishing, The George Institute for Global Health, The University of Sydney, The University of Melbourne, and Monash University, among others.
