Profile Information

Tell us about yourself
I'm a longtime communications professional, now running my own consultancy, Communications + Community.
Communications + Community is an online publishing and communications consultancy.
I help organisations connect to their communities using great content and smart, respectful communication. I love working with the publishing industry, and organisations seeking to make the world a better place.
I have founded a number of online communities and projects, including Girl Geek Dinners Melbourne, the 100 Dates project and #4good brekky, a meetup for people who work, volunteer or study for social change.
Why are you interested in service design?
As a longtime online reporter, editor and publisher, I have long been interested in good website design and user experience, but it was working with The Australian Centre for Social Innovation (TACSI) which really turned me onto the use of design for achieving social change, which really changed the way I work, and the way I evaluate social change programs. Service design itself is problematic (one of my former colleagues describes it as dedicated to iterative improvement rather than system revolution) but I'm very passionate about true co-design, especially as it relates to achieving better social outcomes.
Profession
Online communications specialist
