About
A born and bred Sydneysider, I now live out of the city on the stunning Illawarra coast in a 70's apartment that has given me an appreciation of all things retro.
I've always dreamt of becoming a published author ... right from my very first job delivering papers with my brothers, through working at Maccas with my bestie, to the countless jobs I've held in the corporate world.
​
In a real 'pinch me' moment, I'm absolutely stoked that dream has come true.
​
So please, whatever your dream, don't give up.
Clare
