(almost 22 years)
I have more than 35 years' experience in the publishing and communications industries. Most of my working life has been as a freelancer but I was also Manager of Indigenous publishing house Magabala Books, Broome, Western Australia (1990–95) and Senior Editor with Focus Publishing in Sydney (2002–04).
As the portfolio below will only accept images, I can, on request, supply a full list of the publications I have worked on and my CV.
