AMY

I work within Artefact to lead our Purpose teamwork which activates our organisation's social values.

It’s an exciting area to work deeper than corporate social responsibility in seeking meaningful purpose-driven teamwork opportunities.

As a journalist, television programmer, marketing executive and independent filmmaker I’ve had the privilege to sit with Elders, peacemakers, industry leaders and practitioners in Australia and across the world.

My career has practiced dialogue and reconciliation.

I’ve worked to helped shine a light on the human condition and the planet we live on through journalism, exhibition and factual storytelling. I’m delighted to be working with the extraordinary team here at Artefact to support the four areas of interest for us – First Nations, Equality and Justice, Climate Change and Connection with like-minded organisations.

ABOUT

AMY

I’ve worked my whole career, passionate about social values. I’ve worked with high performing teams in creative projects that seek to illuminate our world's history and culture.

In media and communications, I’ve worked as a Television Programmer at the ABC, in the factual television commissioning team at SBS, as a marketing executive at the Australian National Maritime Museum, and as an independent producer of documentaries for broadcasters such as SBSTV, France 5, ARTE, CBC, ABC and NINE.

“I am deeply inspired by people who work for peace. I am motivated to find common ground and to bring empathy and emotional intelligence to the work we do together.”

I was honoured to be invited by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade to represent Australia at the track 2 diplomatic conference – The Asia Pacific Roundtable, as an emerging leader alongside my counterparts from ASEAN countries.

I felt equally honoured to sit with Elders and Artists from around Australia on country in my work to document the Musee du Quai Branly’s Australia Council Commission and then in further opportunities for documentary and social enterprise work where I have supported story-telling and trained media capacity.

MY ARTEFACT

This shell necklace was given to me by a group of artists living near Gunyaŋara in South East Arnhem Land.

I was working with artist Gulumbu Yunipingu at the time, in the creation of a documentary series which featured her inspiring artwork that was commissioned to form part of the building at the Musee du Quai Branly in Paris, just a couple of blocks along the Seine from the Tour d’Eiffel.

I will never forget walking with the Artist on country, camping with the women and learning from her about how she connected her Art to her medicine.
