My Story

have I got a story for you!

To end up in this line of work, I've gotta have a story, right? I mean you can't really study this stuff at uni.

 

After an amazing childhood growing up in Perth, my story starts at aged 17, where I ran away with the circus (okay, technically I was still a child, so I did have my parent's blessing to do so) but it was this opportunity that got the wheels turning. After the circus stint, I knew I needed to be the big smoke so, I boarded a plane to set-up shop in Sydney. I spent 8 years using Sydney as my base as my dancing, modelling and acting career took me on multiple international contracts.

But eventually it was time for something new... I sold everything I owned, filled a 30L backpack with necessities and set off solo backpacking around Europe and the UK for as long as my money would last me. It was during this trip that I thought about a career pivot.

Arriving back in Australia in 2019 (looking way more disheveled than when I left) I was surprised to see new opportunities come my way. REWIND << I forgot to mention I studied a bachelor of music while in Sydney and it was during that degree that I discovered voiceovers.... and fell in love.

I'm now living in Brisbane and establishing myself as a versatile presenter and voiceover artist, being known for my authentic communication, easy-going nature and professional work ethic. To be honest, I've worked very hard at developing my skillset, but there's also a sense of ease to it all because it feels like second nature... how lucky am I to have found my 'thing'?

I'm not afraid of being in-front of the camera and my days are sometimes filled with modelling jobs. My face can be found in various lifestyle and commercial ad campaigns around Australia (Mum loves it).

Can I tell you a secret?

I lied on my CV to help me land my first presenting job.

But before you discount me... I did it because I KNEW I could do the job. If you don't believe in yourself, no one else will, right?

So, I told a little white lie, booked my first presenting job, absolutely nailed it so much that I was continuously asked back by the client and as they say, the rest is history!

I specialise in lifestyle and corporate presenting and my dream is to work with the Queensland Weekender team, Getaway or any lifestyle/travel show. The thing I love about presenting is the melting together of the storytelling and communication elements with a sprinkle of performance. I also bring a lot of my voiceover knowledge to every presenting job to really hit the correct tone of voice.

Thanks to my little lie, I'm now a very experienced presenter having worked for The Today Extra Show (channel 9), The Morning Show (channel 7), Transport and Main Roads and many others.

Here's the proof that I'm not lying (now)...

VOICEOVERS

You know when you're young and dumb and you walk away from an opportunity that is practically shouting in your face? This was me with voiceovers. I discovered them back in 2012 but at the time I had tunnel vision about my future dance career and didn't pursue it. But what's meant for you will never miss you, right?

I got back behind the mic in 2019 and I haven't looked back.

I specialise in commercial reads, corporate narration, explainer videos, IVR/Phone Greetings and pretty much everything else in between.

I have a home setup while allows me to record remotely. This setup includes a Rode NTG2 shotgun microphone, Focusrite interface, Seinnheiser headphones and AVE ISO foam panels for sound treatment. My previous voiceover clients include Rio Tinto, Bonds Australia, Cook Islands Tourism, Cancer Council, and Red Cross, just to name a few.

As for my voiceover rates, I follow the standard industry rate guide that has been put together by the arts union, MEAA.

I completely empathise when people approach voiceover artists for the first time. We're not scary to work with and we all love the creative and collaborative process. So, if you're in need of a voiceover artist, send me a message as I'd love to chat!

PORTFOLIO

I've been modelling for 10+ years but at the start of my modelling journey I was a square peg being pushed into a round hole. Or should I say, a smiley girl being forced to do high fashion.

Nothing against high fashion/editorial work but it's just not me! (I love too much to smile laugh)

I finally found my place in the lifestyle and commercial industry and I haven't looked back. I'm so lucky to be represented by one of the best agents in Australia, Glass Management.

And I have the best of both worlds because they allow me to freelance while being on their books.

I'm one of very few redheads in SEQ and that's a title I take very seriously haha.

If you're looking for a token redhead for your next campaign, send me a message and let's shoot!
