A selection of innovative solutions designed & executed for GLOBAL clients:
1. Communications Strategist, Branding Partnership Lead:
Uluru Statement from the Heart Campaign
Sydney
The challenge: Lack of clear messaging for a social justice campaign run through a university law school and to drive engagement with non-legal audience across video and social
​
The solution: I devised and implemented the social media strategy for the Uluru Dialogue Leadership team who is guiding implementation of the Uluru Statement from the Heart, a campaign to reform the Australian Constitution for a First Nations representative Voice to Parliament, led by Professor Megan Davis, Pro Vice-Chancellor Indigenous at UNSW and Patricia Anderson AO, Co-Chair.
​
Using my knowledge of the legal technicalities, I researched, hosted and produced “The Voice“, an IG Lives interviews series with prominent Australian celebrities and influencers who are supporters of the Uluru Statement. This series aimed to convey the core themes of the Statement in an entertaining, engaging, interview-style.
I also hosted academic seminars, managed stakeholder engagement with prominent Australian corporations, individuals and benefactors.
​
Branding partnerships: Critically I devised, proposed and spear-headed a digital educational campaign with Australian fashion brand Witchery for the fourth anniversary researching and drafting all written collateral which the social team of Witchery then posted on 27 May (day of the anniversary) through their IG account with 500K followers.
​
Finally, I concepted, and facilitated an official merchandise relationship with The Iconic, after I identified the lack of storage option of t-shirts sitting at the University, limited sales channel as the purchase portal was hidden through the University website and had minimal penetration. The collaboration with The Iconic has been instrumental in increasing the reach of the campaign, and for a youth demographic to be on board with the messaging #staytruetouluru.
