About

Aimee is a writer, editor and screen critic. She's a staff writer at The Big Issue, where she was previously the film and small screens editor. Her work appears on Literary Hub, Little White Lies, The GuardianKill Your Darlings, Letterboxd's Journal and more.

In 2020, Aimee was a runner-up in the KYD New Critic Award. The following year, she was chosen for the prestigious Berlinale Talent Press program. An alumna of the Tin House Winter Workshop, she's also been a mentor at Melbourne International Film Festival's Critics Campus and Melbourne Women In Film Festival's Critics Lab.

Proudly autistic, Aimee is writing a hybrid memoir called Heart of Felt: How Jim Henson's Muppets Taught Me to Be a Person. It explores the ways in which art, childhood, nostalgia and neurotype shape our adult selves. It's been supported financially by Arts South Australia, the Australia Council for the Arts, and the Neilma Sidney Literary Travel Fund.

Based in Adelaide, South Australia, Aimee lives, works and learns on the stolen lands of the Kaurna people. She pays her respects to Kaurna Elders past and present, and to anyone with a connection to the world's oldest continuing culture. Sovereignty has never been ceded.
