My background includes highly developed communication, journalistic, public relations, interpersonal and business skills combined with my 29 years extensive experience in the media, entertainment, arts and corporate sponsorship industry, where I have an exceptional understanding of market development, sales strategies, loyalty based incentives, business partnerships, fundraising and sponsor partnerships at the highest corporate and government level. In addition, my ability to successfully manage infrastructure requirements, business development, major event logistics and the implementation of creative marketing strategies, has enabled me to build a network of strong trust relationships and achieve positive results with high commercial returns.I am recognised for my multi-skilled abilities, lateral thinking, creative writing, innovative problem solving, exceptional negotiating and troubleshooting skills, as well as my strong communication and leadership commitment. I strive to create a positive and effective team oriented environment focusing on efficient productivity and service. I believe that cultivating human and business relationships are just as important as cultivating work skills. I am currently reviewing new opportunities that will allow me to use my existing skills, expertise and knowledge into new and challenging areas.
