| Introduction | I am a 24-year-old writer/journalist/author from New Zealand who has a passion for music, the arts, food, and sports. I am also a songwriter, wannabe photographer, potential tennis champion, avid recipe book reader, and I have one of the greatest voices of my generation. (I don't really I just enjoy saying that lol). This year I introduced ICON, Review, and FLICK, three separate series on this blog, which gives me the opportunity to salute personalities and projects, and to critique musical and cinematic works. I graduated from the Waikato Institute of Technology with a Bachelor of Media Arts (Communication) and a National Diploma in Journalism in 2009, and have written for the North Waikato News, Hamilton Press, Taupo Times and South Waikato News. I was a contributing writer for the Fieldays Exhibitor magazine, Research Register Publication, and the 1908-2008: Waikato Hockey Centenary book. I currently write for Tearaway magazine, Suite101.com and NZBlokes.co.nz. |
