Let’s get to know you a little more.
What has been a lesson you learnt in your career or business that has stayed with you?
One of the biggest lessons I have learned in my career is the importance of adaptability and staying curious. In tourism, no two days, or two guests, are ever the same, and the industry is constantly evolving. Early on, I realised that truly listening to people, understanding their needs, and being willing to adjust your approach makes all the difference.
At Juggle House Experiences, this has shaped everything we do. From designing unique tours across the Murraylands, Adelaide Hills, Barossa and Riverland, to creating experiences like stargazing in Australia’s first International Dark Sky Reserve. The lesson is simple but powerful – embrace change, stay flexible, and put people at the heart of your business. That mindset has guided me through more than 25 years in tourism and marketing, and it continues to inform every experience we offer our guests.
What is your favourite place in South Australia to visit?
My favourite place to visit in South Australia is a mix of stunning natural landscapes and unique wildlife experiences. The Murray River stands out for its raw and authentic natural beauty. There’s something magical about kayaking along the cliffs at Big Bend, feeling completely immersed in nature. I also love exploring Deep Creek Conservation Park with its rugged walking trails, and Baird Bay is unforgettable, especially the chance to swim alongside dolphins and sea lions. South Australia has such a remarkable variety of experiences, and these moments by the water and in the wild truly capture the spirit of the region.
Why is being part of SA Woman important to you?
Being part of SA Woman is important because it’s about connection, inspiration, and visibility. The platform celebrates the achievements of women across South Australia, and being involved allows me to share my journey in tourism while learning from other remarkable women. I believe we are always learning from one another.
For me, it’s also about community and mentoring, showing that with passion, persistence, and creativity, it’s possible to grow a business, lead your community, and make a meaningful impact. SA Woman provides a space to amplify those stories, highlight the value of regional industries, and inspire the next generation of women leaders. Being part of it is a reminder that our achievements are stronger when shared and celebrated together.
