In early 2022 I was elected to the position of Federal Media President of the Media Entertainment and Arts Alliance, representing 5000+ journalists and media workers. It is a voluntary position where I work with members and MEAA staff to protect the rights of journalists in Australia – whether it’s advocating on press freedom, pay and conditions, or the right to a safe workplace. I have helped draft policy submissions related to the News Media Bargaining Code, Media Diversity and Gender Equality. In February 2023 I represented MEAA at the Press Freedom Roundtable hosted by the Federal Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus. I also sit on the MEAA board, and I am a member of the union’s Finance, Audit and Risk Management Committee.
