Since 2011, I’ve helped people across Australia navigate career transitions, find purpose in their work, and build lives where their jobs actually fit.
I’m a Registered Professional Career Development Practitioner with extensive experience in graduate pathways, environmental careers, and regional career development. But more importantly, I’m someone who genuinely cares about helping you figure out what you want, not what you think you should want.
I started my career in the public service, where I saw the impact work and joblessness have on life and wellbeing.
After a decade, I took a career break and moved to an admin role with a Natural Resource Management organisation. I discovered the environmental sector and fell in love with purposeful work. It showed me that sometimes the right career move is more about alignment than advancement.
That experience led me to higher education, where I spent over a decade helping students plan careers that actually made sense for them. I loved it. But change is good, and I saw others I could help – people who needed career support beyond university, professionals stuck in the wrong roles, regional workers who thought the only good careers were in capital cities.
In 2022, I started Good Work Career Consulting.
Now I work a portfolio career – self-employment plus project work – helping individuals navigate transitions, organisations develop their people, and universities strengthen their career supports.
I help you develop self-understanding first, then build the skills to manage your work life and make well-considered decisions.
We do this through practical discussions and activities that explore:
My job isn’t to give you answers. It’s to help you find your own and trust them.
Good Work Career Consulting was founded on the principle that all work can be meaningful, it just needs to be the right fit for you.
I align my services with the ILO’s Decent Work Agenda, which defines decent work as work that is productive, delivers fair income, provides workplace security and social protection, and offers prospects for personal development and social integration.
In practice, this means:
I am a keen photographer, nature lover, average guitar player, avid reader, and devoted dog mum to Pepper, a lazy bull terrier who is also my Chief Wellbeing Officer.
I love going bush to camp and explore, especially in remote country, both in Australia and overseas.
I am a strong believer in the benefits of getting outside your comfort zone but equally value the daily contentment of life.
Whether you’re stuck in your career, exploring options, or just need someone to help you think it through.
