Hayley Maree Herewini Schumann-Mitchell of Sydney, Australia.
The epically named Hayley is pictured here working her (pretty breezy if you ask me) job as a traffic controller on the streets of Crows Nest, and the free time that comes with controlling traffic at the far end of a one way street means she can write her own music, scribble letters to old friends, and prepare for her weekend drama classes quite thoroughly. She's been playing the ukelele since just before Christmas, and even without considering she's never played an instrument before, she's getting pretty good - I walked past her playing outside a cafe a few days ago in fact and that rung in my memory. She's already on her second ukelele (this one is called Lucas) and writing songs come easily to her; she's just written a song for a dude she's "got a crazy crush on" which she admits might sound a bit mental to some. She directs theatre, acts as hamlet, cooks a mean triple choc' brownie, she can't afford to drink alcohol as she's got too much to do with her time to be hungover, and here's an awesome tattoo of hers.
