Radio NewsCurrent Affairs

A radio reporter, producer and presenter … My radio days began with the ABC in Melbourne as a court and police reporter. Later, I freelanced for several current affairs shows on ABC Radio National. Moving to Europe, I produced radio news from the European Parliament and the Council of Europe. 

Paris Live AM presenter

More recently, I have freelanced for Radio France International in Paris and Monocle London. At RFI, I was a producer, presenter, reporter and online news editor. More of my presenting clips from RFI current affairs shows can be heard on SoundCloud.

 

Reporting on the Paris 2015 Terrorist Attacks

For Monocle, I have produced packages on news subjects such as the 2015 Paris terrorist attacks. My report focused on the community around the Bataclan district, where the concert hall attack took place. I also report on hospitality, architecture, design, travel, culture, books and style for programs including The Globalist, The Urbanist and The Menu.

Lots of Food and Wine Reporting from France and Beyond

I produce many stories for Monocle’s The Menu, including this recent one on Surry Hills, Sydney, as a food neighbourhood.  Monocle also sent me to Bordeaux to cover the opening of the Disneyesque ‘Wine Land’, the Cité du Vin.

Recently, I also reported on cinnamon bun culture in Sweden – the home of cinnamon buns.

Urban life and design

I have a real penchant for urbanism in radio and print journalism. Stories about the societies we’re building. Great architects are kinds of gods. They have the world in their hands, literally.

How about surfing in Munich … Yes, in Munich

The surfing craze in Munich is something I just stumbled upon serendipitously on a sunny Saturday morning stroll in the Bavarian capital.
