YOUR BRAND IS NOT LIPSTICK!
IT'S A LOAD BEARING STRUCTURE!
Strategic Brand Architect | Systems Designer | Public Narrative Advisor
I do not separate brand from structure. Public narrative must sit on operational discipline. My role is to ensure that as visibility grows, the infrastructure beneath it remains stable, compliant, and aligned.

Testimonials
I have worked with Nicki worked in several capacities including in my work as CEO of Uncle Jimmy Thumbs Up! + GANGgajang. Nicki visited the Indigenous remote community of Wadeye in the NT as a volunteer and assisted our team in the delivery of the Thumbs Up! program at the school and within the community. She showed a real natural aptitude in working with children and was invaluable to me organizing and efficiently following through several key aspects of the delivery. In our work together promoting Canadian Band The Jerry Cans and GANGgajang, Nicki was a master at managing Music Branding.
Nicki is a truly inspiring woman that leads in her field, with integrity. Innovative and dedicated to the music industry, it is refreshing to work and form a great business relationship with such an amazing woman.
Nicki is a role model to many, working tirelessly to drive artists and musicians in a positive direction in their touring careers. She continues to come up with groundbreaking strategies to promote events and shows whilst keeping within a budget.
In a field that is constantly changing and evolving it is a credit to Nicki that she stays ahead of the game whilst keeping a calm demeanor and leading with a confident approach.
Nicki has carefully analysed a series of fundamental considerations for the music colony – career plans, mental health support, financial education and marketing support. She has focused on digital business systems being well versed in the administrative, compliance and governance focus required of a peak industry body in these times of extraordinary change and challenge in the live music industry. Nicki has the personal skills, digital acumen and engaging manner through a wide range of stakeholders, within a tangle of industry agendas. Her personal and brand marketing skills are superior.
My career from Chipendales to New York Comedy Clubs introduced me to the skills of performance and entertainment. Meeting Nicki, she introduced me to the concept of my brand value. She hacked my business model and established my systems, website, social media and developed a series of Pitchs to help get me cast and booked while working in Australia. Her strength is her ability to hold a calm space for you as she meticulously rebuilds your entire business ecosytem.
