With over 25 years of diverse marketing experience, Catherine has developed a deep understanding of various industries, from higher education and destination management to retail marketing, property development, casinos, and loyalty programs. Holding a Bachelor of Business specialising in Tourism, she has effectively applied her expertise in local government and marketing consulting, driving notable advancements in each sector.
As a devoted mother to a young son and daughter, Catherine balances her professional accomplishments with a vibrant family life. Her passion for country music resonates with the rural backdrop of her community, adding a personal touch to her rural connections.
Interestingly, Catherine, who never considered herself a 'pet' person, experienced a change of heart after gifting her son a Golden Retriever puppy for his 10th birthday. The addition of Richie, their beloved dog, has brought a new dimension of joy and companionship to her family, enriching her personal and community life further.
Catherine continues to contribute to her local business chamber, where she fosters relationships that bridge the gap between small businesses, government support networks, and digital engagement. These relationships prove indispensable for the growth of rural-based enterprises.
