What you do at DTA

My job is to ensure that DTA is the sectors' first choice for nationally consistent, high quality education and training. I do this through consistent communications and marketing.

What’s your favourite part of your job?

I love building connections and contributing to an agile, adaptive and resilient organisation.

How would your colleagues describe you?

Energetic, proactive and...chatty.

What’s a usual ‘day in the office’ like for you?

I switch hats a lot. I speak fluent geek, marketer, editor, designer, salesperson and difficult client - I love big ideas- big ideas are risky and I like risky...But there are lots of big ideas so execution is what matters (and I do execution).

What’s your favourite font and why?

Honestly, I love Helvetica Neue - light, regular, condensed or strong - I don't care what the haters say, it never gets old.

Something on your bucket list that you’d care to share?

I want to know what it's like to live off grid and completely sustainably.
