I’m a writer and ESL Teacher currently based in Italy. I love writing family based stories and comedies as well as a bit of fantasy. I have written two feature films called Occupational Hazard and The Man Who Loved Too Much, and hope to start a new project soon. Check out my blog, the Story Fox, for writing tips, reviews and a few short stories. I'm currenty long overdue a post, but more to come soon!

As a teacher, I've taught Cambridge exam classes and general English across a variety of levels and ages in summer camps and international schools in England, Germany and Italy. I pride myself on engaging speaking exercises that utilise storytelling and drama.
