Michael Ferrante
Writer, Journalist, and Father in Perth, Western Australia
Hi everyone, Michael from Perth, WA with a short introduction.
I am a journalist/travel writer and sub-editor at The West Australian newspaper, which is part of the Seven West Media stable. I have been working with The West for 7 years and before that with suburban newspapers.
I have a commerce degree with a major in marketing and am working towards a Grad. Dip. in Communication as a cloud student at Deakin Uni.
This course and this unit in particular is very much part of my lifelong personal development in the comms and digital media fields.
I am looking forward to working and networking with like-minded and motivated class mates and tutors.
On a personal note I am married to Alessandra and an eight-year-old son, Joel. My interests include combining travel and writing, sport (mad West Coast Eagles fan!), hiking, and striving to be the best dad I can be.
