My BACKGROUND.

How it began

I was a career executive assistant for nearly 30 years before stepping away from corporate life to share my expertise with and support the broader assistant community.

In my career I was well respected and a high performer who supported thought leaders, change makers, CEOs, Chairs and a high profile billionaire.

My experience spanned many industries and sectors, both private and public companies and I physically worked/lived in 7 countries.

High stakes experience

I have experience in multiple corporate crises, Royal Commissions, serious economic downturn (the GFC), the Pandemic, significant senior leadership changes (C-Suite, Chair and CEO), large scale restructures as well as acquisitions and sales of businesses, delistings and IPOs.

Proven experience in Driving organisational success

My ways of working , thinking and best practices saved 8+ hours a week for CEOs, increased efficiencies and eased friction and peak pressure periods and disrupted reactivity across organisations.

I built administration dream teams through creating finely tuned capability frameworks, impactful best practices and ways of working and targeted recruitment that supported creating internal career runways. Development of my teams was a a priority in every organisation I worked in.

MY BUSINESS TODAY.

Today I’m a consultant, corporate trainer, writer, international public speaker and lifelong, passionate advocate for executive assistants.

I’ve been creating and delivering highly impactful public and private masterclasses, workshops and courses that elevate the administration community since 2019.

I’m the host of the What It Means To Be Well podcast, a regular Forbes Australia contributor and have specialist qualifications in communications and social media marketing.

Unique specialist skills

I’m also a highly sought after wellbeing practitioner for wellbeing programs that support the assistant community to thrive whilst navigating the unique challenges of their profession.

I teach meditation, breath work and Wayapa Wuurrk (earth mindfulness) and hold certifications in each. I’m also accredited in First Nations Cultural Sensitivity.

  • They love working with me for my grounded, warm and empathetic approach, refreshing honesty and ability to relate to what my clients are experiencing.
