SPECIALISING IN...

DIGITAL MARKETING & AUTOMATION

I’ve dabbled in CRMs, lead digital marketing expert teams, worked with digital agencies and almost lived in the Metaverse since it existed. I love nothing more than finding efficiencies through automation.

PUBLICITY & CRISIS COMMUNICATIONS

Don’t we all love a bit of drama? Give me a challenge here. Score a metro newspaper cover for the same event year-after-year? Push out a holding statement to quell tens of thousands of customer complaints? Event cancellations galore (thanks La Nina)? I’ve done it and I can handle it, with poise.

COMMERCIAL & GOVERNMENT SPONSORSHIPS

From multi-million dollar government contracts, to inaugural commercial partnerships, my obsession with needing to know why will never see a valuable partner or opportunity slip through my hands. I have my tricks of the trade. I’ve consulted CEOs and external parties, I’ve built strategies and plans from the ground up.

CONTENT CREATION

Who knew being the junior marketing team member in the early 2010s and always being lumped with managing social channels\taking “professional” photos and making videos would pay off? I’ve been doing this since the early days, and trust me, I know what I’m doing.

TEAM MANAGEMENT & SENIOR LEVEL LEADERSHIP

One of my masochistic traits is overcoming people challenges. I am not your average team manager. I am addicted to finding the perfect balance between professional development and organisational value, creating high performing teams. I have worked on senior leadership teams and represented at Board, Council, Government level.

EVENT PLANNING & MANAGEMENT

There is no greater adrenaline than seeing an event come to life. But even if it’s a 20,000+ sporting event, a music festival, a corporate conference, or an intimate dinner (I’ve done them all, end-to-end)… I know it’s the little things that give an event attendee that memorable moment.

CURRENTLY?

I am currently working with Surf Life Saving Queensland as the State's Head of Marketing & Communications. In this role, I am assisting in achieving our overall vision of zero preventable deaths in QLD waters through strategic marketing initiatives, partnerships and a focus on digital communications.
