Hi, I’m Susan

JOURNALIST | DIGITAL PRODUCER | SUB-EDITOR | COMMS

I’m an experienced journalist with a passion for telling local stories that matter. I believe in community and the importance of conversations. For the past 15 years I’ve worked in publishing as a sub-editor, reporter, features writer and digital producer. Being a reporter has meant being privy to how my own society works and having the privilege of meeting those who influence it, whether in their own small or highly impactful way. What keeps me coming back, is the thrill of conveying those stories.
