I am 21 years old, British but of Italian heritage. I am currently studying in my last year of a law degree and hope ultimately to become a barrister.

Writing is a great passion of mine which I would some day love to make into a career.

My passion is ...

music and books, both of them provide comfort when nothing else will.

I know too much about ...

too much. Or think I do.

My parents always told me ...

I was born old

My childhood ambition ...

was to be a singer in a band

My favorite memory ...

playing on the beach with my Dad when we lived in New Zealand. I had a fascination with crabs and rock pools which he fed by finding endless supplies of them.

Why I write ...

because if I didn't my head would explode with the endless streams of consciousness floating around inside it with no outlet.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

I am reading Wicked, watching far too much TV and listening to an incredibly eclectic range of music spanning the Beatles to the Arctic Monkeys.

My first job ...

was as a Deli girl in Waitrose

My best moment ...

I have been blessed with many but the first that comes to mind is being present at the birth of my god daughter. Nothing is more humbling.

My inspiration ...

My parents. Without a doubt the heroes of my world and the people I most aspire to make proud.
