Hi, I’m Melissa and, in a nutshell, I write about the ocean! I’m a freelance marine science, conservation & sustainability writer (and certified scuba diver with around 250 logged dives) and I love telling cool stories about the ocean.

I love telling cool stories about our amazing ocean and the people working to protect it.
Hello!
Great to hear you’re interested in working together – I’m always keen to hear about exciting new stories from marine conservationists, potential commissions from editors and suitable briefs from prospective clients.
So, let’s chat. You can send me an email or book a call below. I look forward to hearing from you.

Please note: due to high demand, I often have a wait time for new clients and cannot guarantee last-minute availability.
As such, please give as much notice as possible for your projects. Thank you!
Or book a call:
I do not work with the fossil fuel industry. If that’s you, please look for support elsewhere. Thank you.
