Started in sport in 1992 taking on the role of administration officer at a newly built velodrome. I was involved in managing all aspects of a venue from contracting staff to managing contracts, promoting our own events to venue hiring and ticketing to security. I then moved into venue management accumulating with managing 3 venues for the SA State Government. From here I had the opportunity to be Events Manager with the SA Cricket Association before moving to Cricket Australia with a sole focus on ticketing operations.
Many highlights during this time including sold out concerts at Adelaide Oval, indoor triathlon, track cycling world records, promoting cycling events regional, our venue being a training base for 8 countries pre the 2000 Sydney Olympics, record breaking Ashes season of International Cricket.
My venue experience has been a major factor in my current role. My passion is around our customers and ensuring they have the best possible experience.
