This means she knows a little about a lot. And if she wants to know more, she’s just as comfortable knocking on the door of a CEO in pearls and Louboutins, as donning high viz and steel caps to get the answer.

Angela’s approach to marketing is hands on and down-to-earth. Her quest is to make the brilliance of propeller heads accessible to everyone, and to make said propeller heads realise what they do is actually pretty cool, interesting and worth sharing.

Before founding The Gap, Angela held communications and marketing roles with…

• Alfa Laval
• Vodafone Australia
• Moet-Hennessey Louis Vuitton
• Parliament of NSW – The Hon. Duncan Gay MLC

She’s also the go-to person if you want to know anything about stone fruit orchards.

Originally trained as a journalist, she quickly learned that the ‘dark side’ of corporate communications paid better, much faster.  From sponsorship to events, employee communications to media relations, community relations to crisis management, brand management to corporate sustainability, as well as everything in between, she’s been there and done that.

As Australia Post’s State Communications Manager and later National Manager Media and State Communications, she’s also no stranger to 'telling it straight' to management, and to being in front of the microphone or camera when the proverbial hit the fan.

• Australia Post
• MMI Limited (now Allianz AG)
• Fairfax Media

She also ran her own gorgeous boutique small business, Goddess Baking, while raising small children, to 'fill up' her day and indulge her creative side.

As a journalist and editor in the print industry, she developed an elegant writing style, a keen eye for detail and a strong ability to work to competing deadlines.

Her time in radio added more clarity and punch to her writing, as did speech writing in the Local Government sector.

 Before joining The Gap, Ruth worked with…

• ABC Local Radio
• Glenbrook School of Music

Her past experience includes journeys into the financial world, the land management and conservation field, the construction industry and telecommunications and government sectors.
