A federal MP once described me as
'The James Bond of Community Workers.'
I work with stealth.
I am fearless.
I trade in connection.
I hold a multiplicity of skills and bring each to the fore as required.
I can sit with a federal minister and advocate for change.
Or teach rooming house residents stand-up comedy, giving voice to the voiceless.
Years of writing and performing stand up comedy means that I am concise and decisive, in comedy every word matters.
I flow easily between the macro and micro.
Watching an audience respond to material, how it lands, where it can go and what needs work is a skill I apply easily to the workplace.
I bring wit and wisdom.
"You do a lot," I often get told..
It makes sense to me, all of it.
Social impact, an author, a humour academic - my area of research is humour as a power construct in the wider gender-based violence lens.
I teach stand-up comedy enabling, fearlessness, resilience & connection through comedy.
In job interviews I have learnt to apply the hack..
Fit in Before You Stand Out.
When I teach comedy
I apply the hack..
Stand Out Before You Fit In.
