Photography is my sanctuary. Photography has been a passion of mine since 1984, capturing landscapes and life across Australia and New Zealand. My camera is never far from reach. My photography is also on Redubble.

Radio Presenter

Since 2017, I’ve been a volunteer radio presenter for 5KIxFM90.7 , our local community station. It’s given me a platform to share great music and connect with listeners while sharpening my public speaking skills.

Blogger

I irregularly write articles on my blog. The sujects are a variety of subjects and genres, ranging from self improvement to CSSx ideas.

Poetry

Expressing my thoughts in poetry has been a passion since my childhood. I have a poetry collection that goes back to the mid-1980's. I still write, plus plan to publish a few books within the next few years.

Web Development

With over 15 years of experience in HTML5 and CSS3, I build websites that are clean, functional, and visually engaging. I’m also exploring AI-assisted coding to push my web development even further.

PERSONAL GROWTH

Between 2020 and 2024, I faced some major challenges that reshaped my perspective on life. Living with [REDACTED] syndrome and Meniere’s disease, I’ve learned to embrace imperfections and focus on personal growth—whether in parenting, writing, or creative work.
