I’ve been a journo and sub-editor​ with Fairfax since 1997 and I’ve worked at the Glen Innes Examiner, the Armidale Express, The Northern Daily Leader and Country Leader, The Land and the Walcha News. When I’m not in the office I can be found running around after my two children (aged 14 and 10) and I also help my husband with our beef, wool and lamb enterprise at Walcha. I’ll be working for 15 hours per week as a rural writer for the New England rural mastheads - Country Leader, North West Magazine and Border News.
