Inside knowledge.
Outside perspective.
My agency and in-house career has taken me across the full spectrum of corporate affairs including leadership roles at J.P. Morgan and McKinsey & Company in Australia and New Zealand, Asia and the United States.
The campaigns that cut through. The media relationships built over years. The narratives that shift how an organisation is seen. And the harder moments: the crisis contained before it became a headline, the right call made under pressure, the executive who walked into a difficult room ready.
The best corporate affairs leaders know how to build and protect, and know when each is needed. That is what this practice is for.
I have advised boards and executives through regulatory reform, parliamentary inquiries, leadership transitions and sustained public scrutiny. I also know the creative side: building profiles, shaping narratives, running campaigns that land. This is where strategy meets storytelling. It is where long-term reputational foundations are laid.
I go deep on the strategy. I lead with the audience. I move fast when it matters. And I say the uncomfortable thing when it needs to be said.
Every engagement gets my full attention.
