With more than a decade’s experience in journalism, public relations and external affairs, I am an innovative and energetic strategic communications professional.

My strengths lie in proactive media generation, stakeholder engagement and reputation, risk and crisis management.

Passionate, motivated, organised and efficient, I am resilient and adept at managing complex and contentious issues, and seizing opportunities.

My experience includes leading a team of communication professionals in a high-pressure environment at Ambulance Victoria, navigating complex and politically sensitive issues while executing significant projects and delivering organisational objectives.

Previously I was a journalist with News Corp Australia, including the Herald Sun, Leader newspapers and Geelong Advertiser, where I gained an insider’s knowledge of the media landscape.
