Tell us about your Rose-Hip Vital journey
In mid 2011 I joined the family business to launch and grow the Canine and Equine brands which at the time were still going through registration processes. With a sales, marketing and design background, little did I know at the time what a good fit Rose-Hip Vital would be for me. A typical small business environment requires you to think outside the box and take on responsibilities and projects you wouldn't otherwise do. Rose-Hip Vital has always been a creative and open working environment which enables the expression and implementation of new ideas. My role soon expanded to include social media and digital marketing across all brands.
What do you love about working for a brand that offers better health to its customers?
Being part of the team that makes Rose-Hip Vital available to the people, dogs and horses of Australia is both challenging and rewarding. Rose-Hip Vital really does change lives for the better and I feel truly lucky to be involved. Not many people can actually say that about their job.
What do you love to do out of work?
I love spending time with my family. 2 small children (3 and 5 years old) keep me on my toes. I also like taking photos (mostly of the children) and spending time in the workshop making and fixing things. Recently I started playing competitive sport again (Footsal) and our team just took home the premiership title.
What are some of your top wellness tips and healthy habits?
Stay in touch with nature, smell the flowers and listen to the birds sing.
What advice would you would you give to your younger self?
Don't rush or you'll miss the small things. Listen more and most importantly, believe in yourself.
