Niamh Sullivan

CEO, Journalist, Presenter, Creative Director and Writer
Bachelor of Communication (Journalism), Bond University Alumna (2018)

Niamh Sullivan graduated from Bond University in 2018 with a Bachelor of Communication, majoring in Journalism. Since then, Niamh has established herself as a successful journalist and business owner in her own right, even being named as a ‘Forbes 30 Under 30 Semi Finalist’ and ‘Business News Australia 2022 Young Entrepreneur Short List’. After wrapping up her gig as a Channel 7 TV reporter on PRIME7 and the Seven Network, the self-confessed word nerd tapped into her passion for storytelling to establish INFIX Creative Studio (formerly known as The Foreward). As an internationally published writer, editor, and speaker, she’s crafted more words than she can count for major brands in every corner of the globe, including Google, Domain, Make A Wish Australia, Telstra, Youi, Crown Casino, News Corp, Magic Millions, Cancer Council.

Today, she works with the INFIX team of writers, designers and developers to ensure every project that walks out the door is as polished as it is fun to put together. When Niamh’s not working on a client project, researching new consumer psychology trends or furiously typing away on her laptop, you’ll find her (attempting) to surf, making a mess in the kitchen or with her nose buried in a book.

She is looking forward to sharing her experiences and wisdom with the next generation of journo’s and creatives.
