I'm here, there and everywhere. I have been the editor of Get Up & Go magazine for 10 years and have been instrumental in evolving it to fit the ‘fab 50 years plus' market. I have been a journalist for more years than I will admit too and love the magazine industry. I stay on top of the social media side and have embraced blogging too as an added bonus to our fab magazine. When I am not writing and getting the magazine, newsletter, blog and facebook happening, I'm in the air, on the rails, at sea, on the road, discovering all the countries of the world or sitting comfortably having a posh afternoon tea - all in the name of research for Get Up & Go. I love coming to work with great colleagues and a supportive company attitude - can't get much better than that. Bon voyage!

"I've surrounded myself with good people, a loyal readership and a ‘Rolls Royce' class of supporters and clients that make up our business events industry. We love what we do and do what we love."

Jenny has been with micenet AUSTRALIA since 2004. She spent much of her earlier years surfing the globe and still loves the sand between her toes.
Her best event memory: Hollywood 1984 - hanging out with all the stars at the world premiere of Prince's Purple Rain. "I always believe… it will all work out well in the end, and if it hasn't worked out well yet, it's not the end.
