Hello.
I am a New York-based writer from Sydney, Australia.
In 2020 I completed an M.A. in Cultural Reporting and Criticism and NYU. My writing has appeared in Harper’s Bazaar, The Drift, the LA Review of Books, The Rumpus, and elsewhere.
I am also the Director of the Unterburg Poetry Center at the 92nd Street Y, where I program literary events of all kinds. Before that, I was the Director of Programming at McNally Jackson Books.
Previously, I was a curatorial assistant at NYU’s 80WSE gallery. I also worked as an editorial assistant, and then as a writer, at Mahlab, a content creation agency based in Sydney.
