Car Rally Comms with 10 days to go...
The inaugural EV Rally was ready to roll for Climate Week 2026. How to make the most of it without assets, expertise or staff? Start the engines! I created a communications strategy and a step-by-step practical plan for quick action. I mentored the highly engaged committee members throughout, and together we delivered a great result, gaining traction with stakeholders and generating a strong suite of fabulous assets. Right now we are working on Phase Two. Such a pleasure to work with these great people!
Australian Haydn Ensemble
Building audiences for the last five years
I've worked on marketing and communications alongside Founder, Artistic Director and CEO Skye McIntosh since 2021. She's highly creative in every sense, started the ensemble from scratch and has done every single thing herself. Oh, and she also plays a violin that dates from 1770. Superbly.
Skye has trusted me to build audiences, meet and exceed box office targets on the regular, work with her Board and donors, and refine, create and deliver the right messages in the TOV we have developed together.
