The Southern Gold Coast has been my home, my working environment and playground for the last 22 years. I’m passionate about where I live and nurturing local business, community and the arts in this beautiful space we call home!
I am the Event Manager at The Valley Estate which is nestled in the Currumbin Valley. I watched the conceptual vision and the build of The Valley Estate to the establishment it is today and could not be prouder of the success to date and the team I work with daily.
I have worked on large scale projects in public spaces as a Project Manager, Operations Manager, Producer of Events including SWELL Sculpture Festival, Bleach Festival, Cooly Rock’s On, Kirra Kite Festival, Tugun Lights Up, Coolangatta Christmas Carols and Gold Coast Film Festival.
SWELL has been a big part of my working life for 20 years. I have had the privilege to work along side Natasha for many different roles within the festival over the years as Operations, Logistics and Producer. I have made everlasting friendships from past and present within the SWELL family, creating a platform for artists to communicate their inner expression via their artform as a response to our emotions.
SWELL has no boundaries regarding age, social demographic or disabilities, who come to enjoy and discover a world of creation on the foreshore of Currumbin. Artists from far, wide and near produce work to bring a larger-than-life scale of art to the city of the Gold Coast to be a part of this fabric for 20 years and the future is a privilege.
