Zara Jayne Marimuthu

A dancer and writer, I live for art through words and movements. My first published work was for a local Malaysian newspaper, The Star, under the MyStarJob section in 2014 and I have written for indie and university publications in Melbourne such as The Bowen Street Press Review and RMIT’s The Catalyst. I have also delved in travel writing for Coolmapp, a travel guide app curated to let you experience the authentic local culture in each city. With my love for both writing and dancing, I hope to push creative boundaries, and also inspire others through the message behind each work. 

I've written business articles, youth development articles, travel guides, fiction and creative nonfiction pieces, performed at spoken word events, copywriting for social media for a music festival and very recently just self-published my own book called, '#chilipaditravels, which is about my solo backpacking trip around Europe for five months. 

Diploma in Mass Communication at IACT College.

Bachelor of Arts (Creative Writing) at RMIT University.
