Summary

I am an experienced sales, advertising, and relationship director helping brands connect successfully with their customers. With 20+ years’ experience, I have worked with some of the world’s leading brands such as L’Oréal, Toyota, Myer, Origin Energy, Village Roadshow, Priceline, RACV through new strategies, big ideas and compelling campaigns across multiple media platforms whilst working with Nine Entertainment and Seven Network. I have a deep understanding of the Australian market through working at both publisher and agency side at the beginning of my career.

I have an energetic and can-do attitude, and I pride myself on being able to manage internal and external stakeholders, whilst my passion for client relationship management ensures the best results are always achieved. Spending the time to understand client briefs and the nuances of a particular audience ensures sales targets and objectives are always exceeded.

Not one for downtime I use my spare hours to encourage women to live their best life through my Unapologetic Women’s Networking group.
