Meet Alice

I loved taking photos, I loved writing, I loved creativity and it seemed to all come under the umbrella of journalism. In my degree I got to go to Mexico for six months. When I came back to uni one of my teachers set me up with an internship at the ABC, and it all went from there. I’m working to help people better understand this warped world and, in understanding it, empower them to make it a better place. Alice Bachelor of Journalism & Bachelor of Arts (Spanish)
