Thanks for popping in! Here's a little about me:
-
I’m 25 and I was born in Perth, Western Australia.
-
I grew up on a missionary ship with my family and 350 other full-time volunteers, travelling around Africa and Southeast Asia.
-
When I was 19, I flew to Guatemala on a one-way ticket and spent 10 months learning Spanish and living between Guatemala, Mexico and Ecuador.
-
I met my wonderful husband, Matt, at church in Newcastle (Australia) in 2018. We started dating in February 2020, got engaged in January 2021, and were married in June that year.
-
In 2021 I was diagnosed autistic, and it’s something I’m still learning about and sharing as I go. I’m always open to any questions about it!
-
Matt and I moved to Adelaide, South Australia in November 2021 and now live in our little unit with our cat Michonne and jungle python, Missy (check her out in my Instagram stories).
-
I’ve wrestled with depression and anxiety in various forms, so I’m passionate about sharing my experiences in the hope that it will encourage others who also struggle.
-
I work full-time as the writer and editor for Anxious Faith, a ministry exploring the intersection of faith and mental health. I LOVE what my team and I get to do.
-
Some loves of mine include fishing, sewing dresses (with pockets, of course), rainbow-ordered bookshelves, twinkle lights, red wine, and travelling.
-
My dream is to be an author. I’m currently working on a memoir as my first long-form piece of work. When I’m procrastinating from that, I’m over here sharing thoughts and blog posts!
-
I am positively TERRIFIED of birds and I have no idea why...
-
My favourite TV shows include Friends, Below Deck, and any period drama (iykyk).
