Bio
Daniel Gold
Tori is great. She came in late to our production with absolutely loads still to sort out and got things under control and back on track. Organised, thorough and generally good egg. Really enjoyed working with her
Alexander Gardiner
Victoria joined us for a short-term contract and made an immediate splash. She is an excellent collegiate team player, bursting with good ideas and hard working. Warm, fun to have around, but also with a steely determination as she put her hand to an enormous variety of development topics from the weightiest of science to pop culture. Victoria worked with us up until the birth of her second child and we were sorry to see her go.
