Telstra
In 2018 Telstra Digital transitioned to an agile work environment, and I was lucky enough to join one of the first 'squads' as a content specialist. Working hand in hand with the deep learning, AI, and data experts, I was primarily focused on digital content strategy that married data insights with creative presentation.
Suncorp
Working with the Strategic Risk team in Sydney and Melbourne, I consulted on a recurring project exploring futurism through creative narrative. My role was to craft ten future narratives with content produced from a two day workshop involving members from across the organisation.
I worked for 5 weeks with both Suncorp internal staff and futurism experts who specialised in the field of scenario planning and strategic risk. The creative outfit was then passed on to senior executives who used it as a base for their future planning.

House With No Steps
I collaborated with Social Ventures Australia and a selection of futurism experts to facilitate a workshop for disability not-for-profit organisation 'House With No Steps'. Hosting a group of ten, I led the team to explore possibilities of future scenarios - both industry specific and not - and the resulting strategic risk assessment for the company as per the [then emerging] NDIS.
NAB
Working with Melbourne digital agency AKQA, I produced a body of content for NAB's 'Life Moments' series, specifically the Divorce and Unemployment/Redundancy sections. Using data and social findings gathered from AKQA's customer research, I was able to identify the most popular queries, and translate NAB's technical advice into simple, conversational content.

Medibank 'Between The Lines' Campaign
In conjunction with the 2015 Australian Open, Medibank launched the 'Between The Lines' campaign. The campaign was focused around the private stories that occur between mixed-double tennis couples - friendship, adversity, and success. Tracking three rounds of competition, the narrative followed hundreds of tennis hopefuls around the country to the winning two - who would play against world champions in the Australian Open. My role in the project was managing the players, filming interviews, writing website copy, managing all online content and scripting/directing the final videos.
You can view the full campaign, here.
Medibank 'The First Time' Campaign
In late 2014, Medibank sent four Australian media + entertainment personalities off on the 21km Melbourne Marathon after just four weeks of training. As project manager for this campaign, I sourced the wonderful talent, oversaw all content production (acting as the sole copywriter, managing video production, and implementing the social media strategy) as we condensed down four weeks of writing, filming, and training into a single campaign release.
