I'm a communications professional and writer specialising in not-for-profit fundraising campaigns that generate millions of dollars every year. A former journalist and features writer, I leverage creativity and a passion for storytelling to help inspire people to give to important humanitarian causes. I have worked with not-for-profits in both Australia and Indonesia. With more than 16 years experience working in the for-purpose sector, I am a creative thinker who seeks out and tells compelling stories. The sort of stories that inspire people, shift opinions and help drive positive change. Alongside this, I have also designed and implemented strategies for highly successful earned media, social media and digital communications that help build not-for-profit brand awareness and reach. I have extensive experience in digital channels, as well as relationship and issues management."Stories have been used to dispossess and to malign. But stories can also be used to empower, and to humanise. Stories can break the dignity of a people. But stories can also repair that broken dignity."- Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
