Founder, Executive Producer & Chief Story-Spotter

Hi, I’m Kim. I’m a creative brain, an audio nerd, a fierce feminist, and the founder of Dash Made.

After years navigating the entertainment, media, and corporate worlds, including a five-year detour in Paris as a real-life Mary Poppins, I decided to build the environment I actually wanted to work in: one that is warm, values-led, and entirely ego-free.

Dash Made is my boutique studio, tucked away in Bayside Melbourne. It’s a creative hideout where big ideas, brilliant humans, and underrepresented voices come to tell stories and create something real. I built this space on the belief that the best work happens when people feel safe enough to show up exactly as they are.

I’m not here for "expert" energy or sterile perfection. I’m here for the grit, the mess, and that unmistakable spark when a story finally clicks into place. I love working with thinkers, changemakers, and the "underestimated," because those are the stories that actually stick.

Life Outside the Mic When I’m not in the studio, you’ll find me solving the world’s problems over a glass of wine with my husband and friends, I spend a lot of time thinking about how to make the world a better place for the next generation, though at home, that "next generation" is currently represented by my seven-year-old daughter. She consistently out-negotiates me before breakfast and is honestly already a better debater than most adults I know.

And yes, the studio is named after Scout, my miniature dachshund and part-time Chief Engagement Officer. His key skills include sun-chasing, loud snoring, and "guarding" the studio from delivery drivers.

The Dash Made Ethos is more than a studio, this is a launchpad. It’s where creativity meets comfort and we get sh*t done, minus the ego.

We believe the best stories happen when you're relaxed enough to be real. We laugh a lot, we listen deeply, and we stay curious about the "messy" parts of a story, because that’s usually where the magic is hiding.
