I am a creative and results-driven marketing and communications professional with more than a decade of experience across property, media, retail, small business and community-focused organisations.


In my current position as Marketing Executive at Stockland Wendouree, I help plan and deliver integrated marketing campaigns, community activations, digital content, social media, customer communications and retailer engagement initiatives. My experience combines strategic thinking with practical delivery, allowing me to take projects from initial concept through to implementation, promotion and evaluation.


With an Advanced Diploma of Graphic Design and strong experience using Adobe Creative Cloud, Canva and digital marketing platforms, I bring visual communication, copywriting and content creation skills to every project. I am also completing a Bachelor of Media and Communications, majoring in Public Relations, through Swinburne Online.
