Biography
I write compelling true stories about international development and environmental issues. I have a strong background in environmental and development research and practice at both local and international scales, and am well-connected with communities of practice in New Zealand, the Pacific and Latin America. I’m a creative and engaging communicator with an eye for detail and a passion for making work that matters. I hold a Masters in Development Studies (Distinction) from Victoria University of Wellington, and was a Winston Churchill Memorial Trust Fellowship recipient in 2016.

Amid the sand dunes, rust-red outcrops, and splashes of bright light in turquoise water, something shimmers in the distance: a silvery reflection of everything around you. Moving closer, you realize it’s a vast, mirrored wall, half a kilometer high and so long that you can’t see its other end.
