Introduction	I'm a PUBLIC SPEAKING AND PRESENTATIONS COACH, with 25 years of experience presenting information professionally. I started out to be a teacher, then moved into arts and culture and on a career path that has included museums, orchestras, public affairs, issues management, and senior management roles in professional services, non-profits and government. Working in such varied environments has taught me how to get information to audiences in ways they understand. I can craft a message and present it persuasively to Government officials, politicians, board members, executives, and experts. It’s a skill I delight in passing on to others. I still love teaching. I train student debaters and public speakers and I'm convener of Sydney’s Archdale Debating Competition for girls. I'm on the Board of the Australian Theatre for Young People and formerly was a Director of Gondwana Choirs, the national children's choir. I went to Sydney University and I have a Masters degree in Public Policy (with merit) and a BA DipEd. I’m a long term chorister with Sydney Philharmonia. I like to travel and I can cook too!
