The Moth Melbourne StorySLAMs
Est 2015
I've repped NYC's The Moth in Australia since 2015, as Local Producer, running over 75 open mic StorySLAMs (and counting)! Over 700 storytellers have jumped up and shared a story from their own lives with a room of strangers.
It's a magical event and very close to my heart.
I am also known to get up and share a story of my own from time to time.
Kaospilot
2019, 2020
In early 2019, I was introduced to the Kaospilot methodology of learning design.
Oh boy - "transformational" is an understatement!
After completing the local Masterclass in April, I traveled to Aarhus, Denmark to further my experience at KaosHQ. I am hooked!
I would recommend this training to anyone who develops programs of learning - whether online or in person; adult or child.
PS. I'm now certified Master Archer!
