Summary

I have a range of experience in broadcast, print and digital news media. I am currently working a short term maternity contract, and I want to join a close-working team that prioritizes compelling journalism. I enjoy working on daily news while having a long-term project on the go in the background - and I'm good at managing my own time to this end. I recently won Young Journalist of the Year 2024 for my reporting with The Journal. I'm very willing to relocate to be part of a team that produces groundbreaking journalism, and to take the next step in my career.
