BUBBLE Magazine

3. What is the most surprising thing about you?

I was obsessed with witchcraft from early primary school days until late high school.

Claud/Clauds. A guy I recently dated called me ‘Claudita’, but that’s not going to catch on I’m afraid.

7. What is your favourite meal to cook?

An autumn-themed pasta. Think: gnocchi or fettuccine beautifully tied in with butter, pumpkin, pine nuts, sage….

My best friend Chelsea. A walking comedian that girl is.

Devil Eyes – Hippie Sabotage.

14. Where is one place you have always wanted to visit?

Either Mexico or Iceland. Both are very different.

15. What plant or flowers do you always have in your home?

Succulents.

16. Your most memorable holiday?

My last memorable overseas trip before Covid was in 2019… A three-month trip meeting up with family, different friends and my boyfriend at the time across Eastern and Western Europe, the Greek islands, and NYC. Huge!

17. How do you relax?

A glass of wine outside with one of the following: a good book, an episode of SATC, or a close friend.

18. How many hours a week do you usually work?

30-50. Some weeks are busier than others. I swear I work 100 hours in the last weeks leading up to a magazine issue launch.

Moisteriser, cleanser, eye cream.

Both my mum and Carrie Bradshaw… two fabulous women!

It’s always been a toss up between Paris and London and for very different reasons.

Blake Lively.

34. If you could only be remembered for one thing what would it be?

Being fun and happy.

35. What is the one thing you want everyone to know about you?

Before journalism, I was a film student and I used to create solo animation projects and enter them into national and international film festivals… and actually won some awards! However, it wasn’t my passion in the end, and I began to figure that out during a script writing unit where I fell in love with the form of writing rather than camerawork/editing, etc.
