Event Management expert with extensive university lecturing experience, and active in the field for decades specialising in stadium concerts & green field festivals for 50,000+

Abby and I worked together while I was in Australia on a very large scale event. From the minute we met it was obvious that she had an incredible amount of experience and has what it takes to manage many aspects of a big show at once. She kindly shared her wealth of knowledge with me and I am eternally grateful. Every event Abby works is lucky to have her as her attention to detail shines through and is well above most in her field. Anyone fortunate enough to study under Abby should know they are in very capable hands.

Abby is an exceptional Events Professional & Public Safety Officer whose deep industry knowledge and trusted expertise make every event feel secure.

Abby was my favourite lecturer when I studied Events Management at Swinburne over 15 years ago, and she's been a mentor ever since. What set her apart as a teacher was that she didn't just teach about the industry — she was actively working in it, so she brought that into the classroom, and brought the class to the industry through opportunities to intern on some of the biggest national touring music festivals. For me and many others, those opportunities became real stepping stones to working on a huge range of stage, festival and stadium shows, including for some of the biggest touring names, like Adele and Coldplay.

Abby sees her students' potential and invests in getting them there. Her students end up with real skills and real credibility. She gives people genuine opportunities and backs them to grow into them. She's a wealth of knowledge and literally wrote the book on Event Management. You come out actually knowing how events work, not just how they look on paper. If you want to learn from someone who's done it all for real and will teach you to do it properly, Abby's your person. I can't recommend her highly enough.
