Anna's life work is dedicated to the power of stories, music, dreams and education to help us to care for our world. Anna lives on the south coast of New South Wales and loves to share her passion for the ocean, the forests, the birds and the rivers. For the last decade, she has worked mostly with stories off stage and on location, weaving local lore, natural history, personal stories and conservation messages into her outdoor guide work in kayaks, caves, on a lighthouse island, at the Botanic Gardens and on bush camps for children and women. An integral part of Anna’s story work is teaching people skills and knowledge about storytelling, ecology and wellbeing. As well as teaching drama to university students, Anna’s workshops have been featured at major conferences including the Bush Adventure Therapy Association, the Australian Storytelling Conference, the Australian Oral History Association and IMTAL (international Museum Theatre Alliance).
