About Me

I am a creative writer and avid photographer always on the lookout for inspiration in new cultures, new experiences and new scenic routes! Though a bit of a road-warrior, I also embrace my hometown and take an interest in local stories and events. I am working to expand my freelance opportunities and develop my photography skills in order to share my passion for writing and to feed my wanderlust.
