Melody is a much loved member of the Tourism Wollongong team. She’s our balance sheet and budget expert and really keeps us all in check…or is it cheque?! When she’s not engrossed in spreadsheets, Melody loves relaxing at Wollongong’s beaches, taking the kids to sport, meeting girlfriends for coffee and going to the movies. The travel bug hasn’t escaped her either…with Mel’s next aim being to head to the UK!
