A little about me
With more than 15 years’ experience across government and private sector projects, I help organisations communicate clearly to support strategic business objectives. My work spans transport, infrastructure, resources, education and health in Australia and internationally.
I’ve built trusted relationships with executives, project teams, government agencies, media and communities—often in complex, high-profile environments where clarity, credibility and timing matter. I specialise in strategic communications, marketing and stakeholder engagement, with deep experience managing issues, risk and reputation.
At the heart of my approach is alignment: ensuring communications support organisational objectives and deliver clear, consistent messages, no matter how dynamic the environment.
I founded Kelpie Comms to provide organisations with a one-stop communications partner, drawing on my breadth of skills and experience across complex government and private sector projects.
The name Kelpie Comms was inspired by my Kelpies, Byron and Bruce, the brand reflects this beautiful hardworking, loyal, intelligent and relentlessly committed Australian dog.
