About

I have lived all over Australia, traveling and waking up parts of the country as a breakfast announcer on local radio. In addition to my on air duties, I regularly created online and social media content, and in some markets pioneered their social media presence.I also took photos, shot videos, edited and uploaded podcasts, created graphics, wrote press releases, scheduled music, compiled airplay reports, produced and voiced commercials and imaging, filled in as newsreader and reported on natural disasters for several national news networks. For four years I worked in digital marketing, looking after brand social media accounts, writing web and collateral copy, designing and distributing email campaigns, filming and editing corporate videos and working on events.I began working for 7 News managing their regional Queensland social media, before moving to Sydney to work for 7 News Digital. At Seven, I created bespoke written and video content, revitalised the YouTube content strategy, created and executed the podcast and Google audio strategy, created and hosted a number of podcasts, and worked with the Sunrise and The Morning Show to leverage broadcast content on digital platforms. I also worked as a program producer for Sky News Australia, creating for primetime programs including Credlin, Danica & James and The Sunday Showdown.Most recently, I've returned to audio storytelling with Nova Podcasts.
