Hi. I\’m Gabriella Kelly-Davies.

Hi, I’m Gabriella Kelly-Davies 

I’m passionate about storytelling and helping people share their story with loved ones and future generations. I’ve studied biography writing at Oxford University and the Australian National University and have won several prestigious writing awards. 

In 2019, I began a PhD in biography at Sydney University. The creative component of my PhD is Breaking Through the Pain Barrier. The Extraordinary Life of Dr Michael J. Cousins, the biography of Australia’s foremost pain medicine pioneer. The book was published in 2021 and launched by the peak advocacy body, Painaustralia.

The theoretical component of my PhD, Choices, Choices, Choices: One Biographer’s Experience, explores the choices I made while writing Breaking Through the Pain Barrier and what scholars and biographers say about them.

In 2023, I spent the Trinity term at Oxford University’s Centre for Life Writing as a visiting doctoral student. Every conversation, tutorial, writing workshop and meeting with scholars across biography, life writing, English Literature, medical humanities and the history of medicine sparked ideas that resulted in breakthroughs in my writing.

While at Oxford, the renowned biographer, Carl Rollyson, interviewed me for his weekly podcast series, A Life in Biography. We discussed Breaking Through the Pain Barrier, my experiences at Oxford and the narrative choices involved in writing about doctors and scientists. 

After returning from Oxford, I launched “Biographers in Conversation”, a weekly podcast of interviews with biographers about the choices they made while researching, writing and publishing their books.

I’ve lived and breathed storytelling all my life, both as a career and a hobby and believe that sharing your story is a powerful way of communicating what you stand for. Writing a memoir or life story enables you to share the lessons you’ve learned in life, the exciting journeys you’ve embarked upon, the knowledge you’ve gained and the love you feel for your family and friends.

I believe a life story or memoir is a tremendous legacy you can leave your loved ones. If you capture your stories now, you’ll create a treasure. Your story is your legacy and by sharing it, you’ll be remembered by your loved ones and generations to come. I’d love to help you share your greatest legacy.
