She specialises in digital & social media approaches in marketing communication, as well as reputation management in the digital world, content creation and public relations. Her work is closely aligned with education, health services, and disability sectors and she advocates for health, wellness, inclusion, accessibility and belonging. She also partners in contract work with some interesting, fun, hospitality and not-for-profit organisations. It's all about finding a good balance, and not taking life too seriously, Lydia has a Master of Arts (Journalism), Post-Graduate Certificate (Internet Marketing), and two Bachelor's degrees (B.Commerce (PR) and B.Arts (Asian Studies)).
