Peter Julian Tanti

Electorate Officer
Melbourne

Summary

As someone who has always been interested in online trends, movements and creative content I have recently become driven to use these interests to learn skills to be more involved in a progressive left movement in an online setting. Since completing university in 2013, completing both a Bachelor of Arts and a Diploma of Education, I worked in retail, gaining experience in customer service while also working in a fast-paced environment which gave me the necessary skills to successfully undertake the role of a Community Action Network field organiser for the Labor Party in 2018, subsequently working as an electorate officer for Nina Taylor MP and Lee Tarlamis MP, having successfully built a style and image for the members online. The experience gained from previous roles has encouraged me to pursue this new role and expand on the skills I have and continue to build upon.
