i’m serena, a malaysian-australian writer based in london

many moons ago, i left australia in search of county fayres and opportunities to babysit my nieces. since then, i've taken to london's underground like a rodent and adapted to survive without sunshine

i'm drawn to islands and faraway lands, but will also write about the internet, georgian oligarch rappers, and MSG

i have an MA in dramaturgy & writing for performance (1st) from goldsmiths, university of london
