Bio
Janice Ong
Katie was part of the MoneyGram Sydney team for 1.5 years in 2003-2005. Katie is a professional marketing expert and she was extremely valuable & instrumental to the early stage development of MoneyGram business & growth in Australia & The Oceania region. Katie brought great knowledge and insight of the remittance industry from her prior role as the Marketing Champion in MoneyGram London office responsible for the European corridors. Katie was a delight to work with and a true team player who was always supporting me to oversee the entire business of a very small team. Katie took an entrepreneur path after MoneyGram and I am very proud of her courage and creativity. If Katie were to decide to take a break from owning her business, I would strongly recommend Katie to join other entrepreneurs or companies to develop their marketing strategies for growth and success. My best wishes to Katie.
