Design has always been a part of Robert Heather’s life. Growing up, his father ran architectural practices on the Gold Coast and in Brisbane. After graduating from the University of Queensland, Robert enjoyed a long career in the arts and creative industries. He has held marketing, communications and leadership roles across the country — within regional galleries, as well as state cultural and tertiary educational institutions. These include the Art Gallery of New South Wales, State Library of Victoria and the University of New England. As a strategic thinker, Robert believes in connecting with audiences through clear, concise writing that engages readers and tells powerful stories.
