However, after being told I needed to wear lipstick, answer phones, and fetch tea and coffee for the mostly male senior team, I quickly realised that environment wasn’t for me. I was hungry to design and eager to learn.\n\nDetermined to carve my own path, I launched my first design studio, marking the start of my lifelong journey in entrepreneurship. This belief in myself has led to incredible opportunities, shaping my career in ways I never imagined.\n\nI began as a graphic designer, and with three gym startups under my belt, I self-taught digital marketing, personal branding, and community building. Decades later, I’ve spoken on global stages, presented to some of the world’s biggest brands, and worked for two of Australia’s fastest-growing tech companies, Canva and Montu.\n\nI have never stopped learning. Through my business—whether it’s been a full-time venture, a side hustle, or taken a pause—my dedication to growth has been the driving force behind my success.\n\nI’ve been told my expertise is hugely valuable to startup brands, with a deep understanding of business operations, brand design, graphic design, educational course creation, Canva setup and management, training, and more. \n\nMy passion is helping businesses build impactful brands that stand out and succeed." }, { "role": "Co-Founder", "company": "Fitness Boxx Australia", "endYear": "2022", "endMonth": "", "location": "Mona Vale", "startYear": "2015", "startMonth": "", "description": "As Co-Founder alongside my brother and now husband, I was deeply involved in every aspect of building and launching our business.
