Hi,
I've lived in the beautiful Mackay Whitsunday region for over three years and handle the communications for Reef Catchments.
In addition, I also run my own PR company, PROSE PR, which handles commercial sector events, PR and a quirky treasure hunt called 'Treasure Hunt Mackay'. I guess that pretty much fills up any spare time I would have.
My 15 yr old daughter is my great supporter. It keeps her in iTunes, so she's thankful her mother is always working.
Previously, I was comms manager for Mackay Canegrowers Ltd for 18 months, so I learnt a lot about sugarcane.
Before my life in Australia, I headed up European media and communications for an international property consultancy, who's headquarters is in London. They had 33 offices throughout Europe, so I got to travel a lot and do communications in many languages. I did this for 17 years, in various guises....but ultimately, I got to know a shedload of European journalists, some with lose ethical standards, which made for good fodder for stories on how NOT to do things.
There are a few European countries I found dodgy to deal with on the comms side of things, but they were good drinkers, so all went smoothly!
