Happily married to Andre for close to 30 years. We recently celebrated the wedding of our daughter.

It was our wedding ceremony performed by a marriage celebrant that motivated me to become a marriage celebrant and enrich the lives of others.

Since 1975 I have been a guest lecturer in Public Relations, Tourism and Marketing for a number of Queensland Universities including QUT, Griffith and Bond. I am a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Management (FAIM)

In June 1996, I was awarded an Order of Australia (AM) for my contribution to the community, regional tourism and sports development. This award recognised my commitment and involvement in an extensive number of major and special events staged in Queensland.

Throughout my corporate career I have been an active contributor to the media, having worked (on a part time basis) over the past 20 years as a print and electronic journalist. I have been a newspaper columnist, television presenter and more recently a radio presenter.

I am an active keynote, motivational and guest speaker, having delivered hundreds of speeches during my working life. The highlight of my speaking career was in 1997 when I accepted an invitation from the OECD (the prestigious international economic organisation) to address an international assembly in Paris on the topic of women business owners and their relevance to global economies.

So what does all this mean to you?

I have experienced a lot of life, I appreciate and understand the importance of presentation and believe that my background reinforces my promise to present a professional, sincere and heartfelt ceremony for you.

With a career in public relations and media, clearly I love memorable events and encourage as much creativity and personalisation as you desire.

To ensure enjoyment for all your guests, as an experienced speaker I use a portable PA system/CD player (MP3 compatible) so that you can include your favourite music in your ceremony.
