Content Writer & Storyteller
Content Writer & Storyteller
quote by Margaret Atwood
About Me
Writer. Storyteller. Curious by Nature.
Hi, I’m Tara.
I’ve spent years working with words, ideas and stories, first through a long career in web development, and now where I feel most at home: writing.
I’m a content writer and storyteller who loves finding the heart of a story and turning it into something people want to read. I’m drawn to real people, real experiences and the details that make a story worth telling.
My background in web development still shapes the way I write. I understand how people read online, how information needs to be structured, and how to take something complicated and make it clear, engaging and human.
But these days, it’s the story that interests me most.
In 2026, I drove more than 14,000 kilometres around Australia. It began with an adventure of my own, travelling from Leura to Broome with my dog, Lucky, taking the long way around via Esperance.
Then I met Bob Montgomery and Tom Malcolm in Broome and travelled alongside them as they cycled across this vast country to Bowral for Miles for MND: One Last Ride.
Those thousands of kilometres reminded me why I love storytelling in the first place: the people you meet, the places you discover, the unexpected moments, and all the little stories hiding between the big ones.
I’m interested in stories that have something to say, whether they belong to a person, a business, an organisation or simply a moment worth remembering.
Because everyone has a story. Sometimes it just needs the right words.

One Last Ride
Some stories are found. Others are lived.
In June 2026, I hit the road with Miles for MND: One Last Ride, an extraordinary journey from Broome to Bowral, following 82-year-old Bob Montgomery and his 18-year-old grandson Tom as they cycled thousands of kilometres across Australia to raise money for Motor Neurone Disease.
I wrote the journey as it unfolded; the long roads, dusty towns, unexpected characters, roadside conversations, challenges, laughs and the moments that made this more than just a bike ride.
From the red dirt of the outback to roadhouses, pubs and small-town Australia, I found stories everywhere.
This is what I love about storytelling: getting close enough to a journey to notice the details that might otherwise be missed.
