Twenties

In 1994 Mary graduated from Tasmania University with a bachelor in Commerce & Law. She studied for five years at Tasmania University. She's 22 here.

Then she moved to Melbourne, where she worked for 18 months as a graduate trainee at DDB Needham, a large advertising company.

She then switched jobs to Mojo partners in Melbourne.

When she first moved to Melbourne Mary was living at 11A, Macfarlan Street (the house with the blue windows)

At Mojo Partners Mary met Amber Petty. Mary worked at the firm for 2,5 years and saw herself as "one day being the managing director of an international company".

In Melbourne she started playing golf.

Mary's mother died in 1997. In 1998 - when she was 26 - Mary quit her job at Mojo to travel to America and Europe for 10 months. In Endinburgh (Scotland) she met up with relatives and got a job in the advertising world. After her contract finished she moved back to Australia.

Back in Australia she moved to Sydney, where she started working for Young & Rubicam. After that she switched to Love Branding. In this video you can see her at work (05:06) as an account director for Love Branding:
