Due to several major data breaches at Australia’s biggest companies, most of my personal information is readily available on the dark web. But here’s what the hackers don’t know (yet).

For the past eight-ish years, I’ve been working as a creative copywriter across Australia, writing car ads, booze campaigns, and road safety messages discouraging that exact combination.

After 22 years living in Australia, I’ve relocated back to my native home, the UK, seeking fame and fortune; or at the very least a modestly paid job in advertising.

I’m currently available for freelance, contract or full-time roles.
