Why did you join BWN and what do you love about it?
After a two year hiatus (maternity leave), I decided it was time to reconnect with BWN and the passionate business women we have in our community.
How do you define success?
The meaning of success for me has altered throughout my life. What you think it means at 20 is very different to what you know it means in your 30s and of course it will change again in later years. At this point in my life I now believe true success is creating a healthy lifestyle where I am employed in a fulfilling role and work with people I care about, which is flexible enough to work around my main priority, my family.
Which local women inspire you and why?
Over the past year I have met and worked with a number of amazingly passionate women who are fulfilling their dreams of running their own businesses, within our local community. Many of these women have young families and I am honoured to be on this journey to self and business discovery and development with them!
What's the best piece of advice you can give our audience?
Have the courage to own who you are, why you are doing what you do and how you can apply your vision to positively impact the world.
What is your superpower?
A mum and a business owner
What do you love most about what you do?
I am thrilled to have a job that allows me to explore my creativity while documenting significant moments in my client’s lives. At every shoot, I learn something about a business, a business owner’s story, about love, something about life or something about relationships and connections. I am grateful every day to have such a fulfilling job.
