I’m a Melbourne-based writer with 20+ years of journalistic experience. Passionate about the arts, I have a particular focus on film and theatre.
My byline regularly pops up at places like Fairfax, SBS, Flicks, ArtsHub, The Saturday Paper, Time Out, The Big Issue and Metro magazine. You can hear me on Joy 94.9FM, and occasionally on Radio National. I also host Q&As.
I’m also available for copywriting and corporate communications.

Hi Stephen, just to say I loved your reviews on RN Breakfast. I am a fan of Jason Di Rosso but look forward to your delightful fill-ins when Jason is away. I have found your Rotten Tomatoes feed and will keep a watch on your work there. Have a great year.

Hi Michael, and what a lovely message to receive. Thank you so much for taking the time to find this site (that I don’t give enough love tbh) and to leave such kind feedback. It genuinely means a lot to me. I hope your year is fantastic too!
