About me

I am a writer and content producer living in Naarm/Melbourne, Australia.

My debut book, THE BOY IN THE DRESS (Affirm Press, 2022) was shortlisted for The Age Book of the Year 2022 (non-fiction) and was the winner of Best True Crime in the 2023 Danger Awards. Researching my ancestor’s story has ignited my passion for queer history. My work has appeared in the Guardian, ArtsHub and Meanjin.
