It’s a privilege to be able to amplify the whispers of unheard voices and share the stories of those whose ideas and actions shape communities and the future.
— Kim V. Goldsmith

I’m a journalist, writer, professional communicator, content producer, digital media artist and creative producer based near Dubbo in Central West, New South Wales.
Once an ABC Rural Reporter, I still keep my hand in from the other side of the desk as talent and occasionally as a panelist on ABC Regional Radio (NSW). Over the past four years, I’ve used my broadcast media skills planning, producing, and at times moderating public online talks about the arts for regional arts board, Orana Arts Inc.
Having worked as a freelance journalist since my university days studying agriculture and journalism, I’ve been drawn back to write for newspapers several times over the years, including time as rural and arts editor and then a contract feature writer and op-ed columnist for Panscott Media’s former publications, Dubbo City News and Dubbo Weekender magazine. In more recent years, I’ve written essays and editorials for Guardian Australia, Mona Magazine, and international arts and culture blogs.
Running a regionally-based marketing communications and training business since 1996, as well as developing a multi-disciplinary arts practice over the past two decades, I have a wide range of experiences in media, issues management, strategic communications, public relations, digital and social media marketing, digital content creation, project management and more.
I’m a versatile, professional creative communicator who is still curious about the world and how it works, and who brings decades of experience, networks and knowledge to any role I take on.
I’d love to hear from you if you have ideas about how I might be able to help. Contact me if you’re keen to talk or want to know more.
