Strategic Communications Consulting
Personal Bio
I'm passionate about giving a voice to causes I care about, messages that matter and brands I believe in.
For more than 20 years, I've provided communications services to corporations, small businesses, government agencies, and not-for-profits.
I started my business when I moved to the Mid North Coast of NSW in 2010 after managing a PR consultancy in Sydney, where I worked with some of Australia's biggest brands and international corporations.
A former registered lobbyist in Federal and NSW Parliaments, I was also a Lecturer in Communications, Advertising and Events at Charles Sturt University.
I completed a Bachelor of Public Relations and Organisational Communications in 2002 and was awarded the Public Relations Institute of Australia Prize, Sociology Prize and a University Foundation Scholarship.
I'm an active member of the local community, a member of Business Port Macquarie and was the inaugural Communications Coordinator of the Hastings Business Women's Network.
I wrote a column for Focus Magazine profiling community members for 5 years and was a founding member of the International Women's Day Committee and environmental protection group, Coastal Warriors.
