Short Black | Sandra Sully podcast

Published: Tuesday, 31 December 2019

The lovely Sandra Sully invited me to appear on her podcast, Short Black, after we spoke at Vogue Codes together in 2018.  Check out our conversation here:  https://play.acast.com/s/short-black-with-sandra-sully/maritacheng

Here's some photos of Sandra Sully and I sharing the stage at Vogue Codes in Sydney 2018.  Good times, and that was a beautiful event that Vogue put on.
