Hi, my name is Jet Williams and I’m a 24-year-old writer, artist, developer, and music producer human being.

I was born in Sydney, Australia and spent most of my childhood at Maroubra Beach, riding scooters, jumping off cliffs, and bodysurfing. Maroubra is where I learned how to shoot and edit some of my first videos at the skatepark filming alongside my younger brother.

I also spent a short period of my life living in the Northern Territory with my family around the time I was 8 years old. Here we spent our time swimming in natural waterholes, inspecting termite mounds, and escaping cyclones.

Being introduced to Australia’s natural landscape at such an early age had a profound impact on me, inspiring me to continue travelling not only around Australia but the world.

I’m obviously still a huge fan of the outdoors, and often find myself somewhere on a hike, either with a friend or by myself. But I also love being inside, at the computer, mid-winter, preferably with the rain pouring outside, so I can focus on whatever idea has struck me that day.

I love that I can just push buttons on the computer and out comes magical internet objects that can connect you with strangers on the other side of the planet, before all of a sudden, you’re crashing on one of your new internet friend’s couch in New York.

However, the one thing I don’t love is boxes, and I’m not talking about the cardboard ones. I’m talking about labels.

I was reluctant about defining myself above using labels like writer, artist and developer, because I am so much more than that. I’ve been a bartender, a fishmonger, a disability support worker, a labourer, a dog-sitter, an ice block and sticker reseller, among many other things.

The point being, what I am today, isn’t necessarily who I’ll be in ten years’ time. I am always changing, learning, and evolving. At the end of the day I will always be a human being. And although I’m only 24-years-old at the time of writing this, I feel like I’ve been given the privilege to live so much life already.

What I’ve told you is just the tip, of the blade of grass, that is me, on the garden that is Earth.
