About
I’m a New York City – native, living in Melbourne, and I believe that unlikely beginnings make for the most meaningful journeys. In pioneering Employer Branding teams for organisations like Australia Post, RMIT University and Sportsbet, I’ve helped connect people with career opportunities that truly match their personal values.
After almost a year as the Employer Branding Lead at Sportsbet, my role expanded to Employer Brand and DE&I Manager.
The teams that I lead are the architects behind award winning programs such as:
•candidate attraction campaigns
•talent inclusion
•referrals (reward & recognition)
•candidate and hiring manager experience
•onboarding
•professional branding
•employee advocacy
•internal mobility
•staff-alumni communities
•HR Tech build-out (PageUp & Workday)
•Diversity, Equity & Inclusion endorsements & campaigns
•Reconciliation Action Plans
•Accessibility audits
•Multi-Cultural education and celebrations
•LGBTQIA allyship and education
My teams have been recognised in the following ways:
🥇 Internal Talent Awards (individual and team recognition at RMIT & Sportsbet)
🥇Circle Back Initiative members (RMIT & Sportsbet)
🥇WGEA Accreditation: Workplace Gender Equality Agency - Employer of Choice
🥇HR Excellence in Research 2021
🥇LGBTQ Inclusion Australian Workplace Equality Index – 2019, 2020 and 2021 Employer of the year
🥇2019, 2020 & 2021 Index Benchmark Report from the Australian Network on Disability (RMIT)
🥇Disability Confident Recruiter Accreditation (RMIT)
🥇2019 Candidate Experiences (CandE) Award (RMIT)
🥇Numerous AHRI awards (Australia Post & RMIT)
As a return-to-work mother of 3 (!!!) kidlets, my investigative nature has me interested in how all people balance their passions- whether it’s at home or work. I’m intrigued by what motivates people to get out of bed every morning.
