Bridget Tombleson

Bridget is a PR professional with sixteen years’ experience in public relations, media relations, issues management, strategy development and internal communications. Bridget has worked in government, corporate and consultancy roles in Australia and overseas. She has developed a new unit called Transmedia Storytelling for the Public Relations course at Curtin University. As a part of this she teaches across multiple platforms and embeds PR skills that will be sought after in the future, so graduates are relevant upon graduation. Bridget is currently researching students’ engagement with new technologies (in particular social media platforms) and learning in a transmedia storytelling environment.
Bridget has strong skills in research and analysing trends backed by a Master of Public Relations, a Postgraduate Diploma in Business and a BA English.
