Meet Heather

My career in specialist communication and reputation management spans nine years across science, technology, health, property, Iwi, and not-for-profits.

Since running my own firm for four years with a vibrant team, I’ve been concentrating my skills into digital PR, focused on helping serviced based business establish and build their online brand reputation and develop external communication programmes.

Today I enjoy working closely alongside my clients as an extension of their team. My clients benefit from nine years’ experience and wide range of insights and industries, but without the overhead of a full time employee.

I have a Bachelor of Science in biotechnology from Victoria University and outside of work I’ll be running, road cycling, or tramping.

Meet the Partners

Heather is an outstanding communication specialist. She is clearly an expert at keeping the clients needs at the centre of her work. I was overwhelmed with professionalism and her passion to understand a cultural history and paradigm that was not her own.
