There’s not much you can’t achieve with clear communication, empathy and a sense of humour.

I've been in the marketing, communications and PR industry for over a decade. I cut my teeth as the marketing manager at the Otago Museum in Dunedin before moving to Auckland and joining Niki at what was then Niki Schuck PR.

I have a double degree in marketing and psychology, as well as a diploma in speech and drama; which is to say, I can blend top-level strategy with human connection, and a dash of dramatic flair to catch the eye.

Over the years I've worked across industries to help clients develop a voice, grow their brand awareness and step into thought leadership. I've had the privilege of working with businesses of all sizes, from charitable organisations through to multi-national household names, and always relish the challenge of a new problem to solve. I love the blend of creativity and meticulous execution that communications offers, and there's no better feeling than helping a client take a concept from vision to reality.

I currently live in Ōtepoti Dunedin with my husband, Ben, our young son, and our princess of a cavoodle.
