I trained in print journalism (in Auckland, New Zealand) and then studied for a degree in Communications, majoring in radio and TV.

I have over 25 years experience as a writer, marketer, communicator and small business owner.

Coming from a creative family - with a film producer dad and dance teacher mum, owning my own business was always a given. I love knowing that the effort and energy that I put in, will directly effect how my business can grow, and how many people I can help.

My first full time job was for a film company based in London, where we travelled the world producing a weekly TV show, Powerboat World. I was fortunate to also at the same time be writing for a number of publications, so combined my loves of working in many facets of the media industry.

I left the northern hemisphere and moved to Sydney (closer to home and my family in NZ) in my mid 20s and worked for various TV companies and networks, and then moved into print magazines and advertising. After starting my own film company I then moved to the NSW far north coast, and expanded into an agency offering graphic and website design, as well as creating advertising and marketing campaigns for small to medium businesses to help them share their messages.

With the arrival of social media platforms I realised the opportunity for getting visible to a whole new audience and communicating in a whole new way, resonated with me as the ability grow a community and share your story was amazing.

I'm a speaker, coach, mentor, writer, designer, educator, presenter, content creator, and branding specialist - which ensures that my offerings in a coaching capacity are wide, extensive and varied.

I'm constantly growing and investing in myself and my business so I can help you and your business grow! I believe that every coach, needs a coach! In fact, every business owner needs a coach ... someone who's been there, and can guide you to get there!

Teaching social media, branding, email marketing, SEO and so much more to entrepreneurs, brands, ecommerce stores, business owners and marketers fills me up, and watching those light-bulb moments and joy when I can uncomplify digital marketing for them is massively satisfying.

I love telling stories and believe passionately in the power of content marketing to connect makers, creators and doers in a positive way with networks that will deliver both social and business support. I also love to inspire people to come together and find joy in the process and an understanding of collaborating and building relationships which is why I started a Positive, Passionate Business Women, an online directory of women-owned businesses to help your business get found, and an online networking group to help you collaborate, connect and grow!
