Dianne has no degrees but a wealth of experience working in different offices in Australia, London, Los Angeles and New York where she worked for Austrade and then an international shipping group. Her last job in Sydney before leaving for the Coffs Coast was at the Australian Dental Research Foundation where she administered their secretariat and research grants. A sea change in Coffs yielded no gratification so Dianne returned to the city, this time Canberra, in October 2006.

Shorthand is her natural medium and she has minuted many public meetings, including one in Canberra for the ACT Department of Health. As a deviation from secretarial work some years ago she went into the hotel business and then a retail food shop in Sydney but soon realised that an office and those who inhabit it are her preferred surrounds and she is back where she belongs.
