I am very fortunate to have the opportunity to apply my communication skills to a cause I truly believe in. Reuse is an easy - and obvious - way to make a big difference in our world. Being a part of opening minds - young and old - is a privilege and a pleasure. I am very fortunate to have the opportunity to apply my communication skills to a cause I truly believe in.

Every day is different at Writers. While the core functions are the same - copywriting, researching, project managing - the subject matter and mediums are always changing. I have written EDMs, websites, print ads, brochures, customer communications, social posts, profiles, blogs, speeches, funding proposals, annual reports and tenders on everything from recruitment, financial services, engineering, education, car leases, design, medical, real estate, corporate bonds, and height safety, to animal protection and homeless shelters.

Marketing Plus was a full service tourism marketing consultancy working with clients such as Tourism NSW, Antarctica Sightseeing Flights, The Captain's Choice Tour, Connoisseur Tours, and Nautilus Resort. As part of a very small team, my role was hands on with everything - copywriting, design, production, database management, direct marketing, event management, familiarisation tours, media, advertising. This is where I was first exposed to building websites - a novelty at the time.
