Founder of The Hearth Collective
The Hearth is a creative readings event with a focus on bringing together creative readings with intelligent reflection on practice, followed by an audience Q&A style discussion. As a founding member, I am responsible for event management, publicity, digital media and social networking, contacting readers, liaising with venue staff and presenting, MCing and managing the event on the night.
Producer and Host of Deviant Women
Deviant Women is a fortnightly podcast that discussed a different ‘deviant’ woman from history, fiction, mythology and the contemporary world: those who aren’t afraid to break the rules, to subvert the system, to explore, to seek and to challenge the status quo.
Director of Speakeasy
Speakeasy is an undergraduate creative writing showcase with four events annually. As Director I encouraged student participation, mentored students with public speaking and editing and was responsible for event management and publicity.
