More about me
My audio work includes podcasts, radio and film documentaries, sound poetry, sound installations and creative audio workshops. My work explores the meeting point between personal and collective narrative and our responsibility of listening.

My highlights include creating 2222, a site-specific sound installation for Emerging Writers Festival x State Library Victoria; facilitating Sound Bodies at the Women's Center for Creative Work in Los Angeles; and producing the Digital Writers Festival podcast, Women on the Line (3CR) and We Weren’t Born Yesterday – Australia’s first multilingual LGBTIQ+ radio series. In 2019-2020 I was a Collaborative Studio Fellow at UnionDocs (NYC) where I was the Editor and Sound Designer for the short documentary, flutters through skin (Directed by Nundrisha Wahkloo).

I'm interested in projects that bring people from different disciplines together (i.e. artists, radio makers, activists, filmmakers, farmers). I would love more experience working on sound design for films, site-specific sound installations, sound engineering live audio storytelling events, podcast training, facilitating sound workshops and working with young people.
