​Sometimes people say I'm weird, and I like it when they do. I like odd things. But I really felt like the odd thing when I turned up at The National Writer's House, Varuna, for my week long NEWC Fellowship. 
​
It wasn't that I was the lone guy in a group of six. It wasn't that I had driven 8 hours and felt kind of light-headed. It was more the fish-out-of-water type of odd.

I founded Impact Editing in 2021 after completing a Postgraduate Certificate in Professional Editing at Macquarie University.

In 2023, my family relocated to Armidale after eleven years in Narrabri, where I worked as a journalist and educator.

I am passionate about literature, having studied literature at university and worked as a lecturer at the University of Tasmania, and then UNE, but I am also a skilled editor of non-fiction and dissertations.
