About me

I've spent 15 years making complex information clear, mostly in environments where getting it wrong isn't an option.

I started in financial services at IG Markets, moved through government digital delivery at Service Victoria and DELWP, restructured product content for BAE Systems' defence business, and spent the last 4 years at ANZ, where I progressed from senior content strategist to chapter lead of a team of 12.

Along the way I became a PMP-certified project manager, which turned out to be the thing that set me apart. Most content strategists can't run delivery. I can. And most project managers can't do the content work themselves. I can do that too.

At ANZ, I built the content strategy model that defined how our discipline operated. I led our AI adoption, which improved efficiency by 50%. And I drove the work to prove our value: $8.5-10.7M in revenue contribution, documented and presented to leadership.

What content work actually involves

Content work goes by many names: content strategy, content design, UX writing, information architecture. The boundaries blur because the work does. I've planned content systems for entire organisations, written interface copy for mobile apps, restructured websites to improve findability, and created email journeys mapped to conversion data. What connects all of it: making complex information clear, then measuring whether it worked.

How I use AI

I've led AI adoption at team scale and applied it hands-on to produce a 58,000-word book. My approach: AI accelerates research, ideation, and first drafts, but human judgment remains essential for voice, accuracy, and anything involving risk.

Beyond content production, I use AI for higher-reasoning work: critical analysis of my own outputs, identifying weaknesses in arguments, condensing complex research into decision-ready recommendations, and strategic thinking on problems where I need a rigorous sounding board.

I train teams to use AI as a multiplier, not a replacement, and I structure adoption around clear workflows so efficiency gains are systematic rather than scattered.
