A word from my clients
Anna was fantastic to deal with throughout our website construction.
She was professional, efficient and worked well with us to create a website that best suited our requirements. We appreciated her positive attitude throughout the project, especially with the delays and content changes made from our end. We would have no hesitation in recommending her or working with her again in the future.

Anna has done a great job of helping our team improve their writing skills and give a consistent and professional tone to our documents.
Anna has been easy to work with and able to work flexibly with our business, providing ongoing support and coaching for specific projects.
I can’t recommend Anna highly enough.

Anna was an absolute dream to work with.
Anna managed the update of our website efficiently and with a keen attention to detail. She conducted a thorough briefing process, asking all the right questions and clearly explaining the implications of different decisions. She really took the time to understand our needs and from there on in, the process was really seamless. Thank you Anna!

My background
When I was a kid, my sister won both the school and regional speech competitions with a speech I wrote. This may be the biggest backhanded compliment I've ever been given.
I am quite happy writing about anything. In the past I've written copy about the wonders of Eta mayonnaise, Purina One dog food, Westpac home loans and TVNZ's Celebrity Treasure Island.
I previously worked at TVNZ as:
a) The weather girl
b) The editor of the TV & TVNZ OnDemand websites
c) One of the aboveI love writing books. In 2010 I won the Storylines Tom Fitzgibbon Award which led to the publication of my book, Hollie Chips, by Scholastic. A year later, I won the NZ Post First Book Award and the Children's Choice Award in the Junior Fiction category for Hollie Chips. (Bragging over.)
I'm now working from home in Auckland while looking after my three young daughters. Our favourite song is Kokomo by The Beach Boys. We could do with some dancing lessons.
