She makes art, writes and works for those who haven’t had the luxury of seeing their stories in the mainstream. Haneen has been published by Guardian Australia, SBS Voices and was a recent finalist in frankie magazine’s Good Stuff Awards for 2020. She is grateful to live and write on Larrakia land.
