I have wanted to hire this Australian lady for quite some time, but knowing how in demand she is with her unique set of skills, I never quite had the courage to ask her until recently. If I was to have a daily national portal, I would need colleagues who were not only bi-lingual and experienced writers able to work to tight deadlines, but also those who understood the undercurrents of the Croatian political scene, and who had contacts thoughout the land to get the very best interviews and the very latest info.
I have lost count of the many faces of Danni over the last couple of years since we first met; organiser of the highly successful Days of Croatian Small Boat Building, presenter on Radio Split, Master of Ceremonies at events hosted by embassies to small associations, excellent copywriter, simultaneous translator, an extremely effective connector of people, and a very nice lady on top of all that. Her combination of Western mindset and sarcastic humour make her the perfect companion in the Total editorial room, and her understanding of the nuances of Croatian life mean that she is a valuable addition to the Total Croatia News team. Through her media and PR responsibilities, Danni is in a position to get the best news and the exclusive interviews for us, such as a VERY rare interview with one of America’s most controversial doctors in Bol recently, Dr. Anthony Atala.
Danni will be one of the main writers for Total Croatia News initially. Thanks for joining the team, Danni, and I will enjoy taking sarcasm to the next level in the office. A little more about Danni, by Danni:
Born and raised in Australia, Danni describes herself as an accomplished media and communications professional (she insists she’s in no way an expert, still needs few more Vegemite sandwiches to achieve that status) with more than 10 years of experience in internal and external communications, social media, blogging, printed, radio and TV journalism, copywriting, content and editorial media relations in travel, tourism and hospitality. For the last 5 years she’s been putting her strong journalistic and PR background to good use as a communications consultant for various tourist boards across the Mediterranean. Listeners of HRT – Radio Split are well familiar with her voice as she hosts several daily shows a week.
You can contact Danni via [email protected]
