She has worked as a content creator for the ABC, National Geographic, MBC in Dubai and the creative agency BDA in London. She worked on the feature Mary Meets Mohammad which would go on to be a Walkley finalist. Recently she worked on Christmas Island with Plimsoll Productions shooting and producing behind-the-scenes for their latest animal migration series.
