I’m Serena, a Malaysian-Australian writer with a mole on my face and a story in my heart. I have written for The Independent, CNN, Vox, Refinery29, i-D, Dazed, frankie, Insider, South China Morning Post, The Sydney Morning Herald, SBS, ELLE, and more. These days, I live in London.
In 2019, I left Australia in search of county fayres and opportunities to babysit my tiny nieces. Since then, I have taken to the Underground like a rodent and learned to gird my loins against the lack of sunlight. I have reported on women in the High Arctic, erotic humiliation on TikTok, a chef in Antarctica, mixed race identity, the UK's last lighthouse keepers, video dating, Georgian oligarchs, and fashion experiments nobody asked for.
When I'm not writing, I enjoy solo travel and shooting aerial photography. My book, How Women See The World, reeks of both.
