Director @ Strategise Australia
Having travelled to over three dozen countries by the age of 21, her love of culture and the social sciences inspired studies in International Relations, Japanese and International Development.
An exhibited artist (painter and photographer) NataleeJewel is equipped with a keen eye for composition, perspective and a great appreciation for the psychology of aesthetics. Her love of practical design has also been applied in corporate and residential built environments underpinning her success as a Property Developer.
Recognising a gap in the market, NataleeJewel established her own business, which rapidly evolved from online real estate photography into developing websites, online communities and new media campaigns for a range of SMEs, including Indigenous groups, NFPs, international business leaders and Defence.
When a multi-national advertising company offered her the opportunity to establish their inaugural Social Media division, NataleeJewel couldn’t resist the opportunity to apply her knowledge of digital strategy and her award-winning commitment to customer service for global, house-hold-name brands as well as a wide variety of Australian and New Zealand Government agencies (with a focus on recruitment).
Recognised as a digital thought-leader, NataleeJewel was frequently a keynote speaker and member of expert-panel discussions sharing her unique approaches with audiences across Australiasia and live-streamed global events.
Her appointment as Media Director of the Embassy of the United States of America brought her career full circle, where she was responsible for both the Canberra Mission’s traditional and new media. Introducing innovative digital systems NataleeJewel took communication processes to a new level bringing a fresh dimension to local and international outreach programmes.
Among her many accomplishments, her work as the U.S Embassy’s Media Liaison for the Ambassador’s Innovation Roundtable with Australian entrepreneurs won a coveted Gold Award from the U.S. Department of State’s Asia Pacific Regional Office.
Now a mum of three young children, NataleeJewel is devoted to the full-time care of her family while continuing to project manage a diverse property portfolio; train/consult on digital campaigns for select clients; and lead the Communications team for Strategise Australia, Veterans Industry Partnership and a new tech start-up ***COMING SOON!
