As COO of a publishing company based in Sydney, I helped lead a team of around 20 people to deliver high-quality journalism to Australian doctors.

I attended international conferences for rheumatologists in Madrid and Chicago and interviewed leading doctors on their research and expertise. I recruited, mentored, briefed and edited the work of a team of freelancers. I also spent three months recruiting and training my replacement so I could focus on launching Oncology Republic.

In this role, I wrote news and feature for a daily e-newsletter and monthly print magazine for commercial lawyers.
