About me

Passionate about harnessing human connection and feeling, my favourite projects are the ones that provoke a visceral response.

Having worked for over 10 years in Production, and across traditional media and experiential immersive experiences, means I wear a lot of the Production hats! From Senior Producer/Producer/Integrated Producer/to Production Manager and Line Producer.

My versatility and adaptability covers a multitude of client briefs, the experience to lead projects of any size within time and budget, and a knowledge to recommend the best creative solutions and teams.

My background in health care and community services mean I have a special interest in social impact, NFP and documentary projects that make a difference. My other side passions lie in anything related to music, nature and art, and travel. I have a dual passport for Australia and EU and would love to put it to more use professionally.

I can’t wait to see what we can create together to engage your audience!
