She is a commentator on Sky News Australia and has featured on TV and radio programs nationally including A Current Affair and the Today Show and has done many radio interviews. She has a double degree in Arts/Law. As Sophie says;

‘My role is to be across anything relating to the hip pocket. This includes home loans, credit cards, superannuation, investing and all day-to-day expenses that Australians face. Each and every person’s financial situation is important whether we like it or not and so it’s critical to deliver stories that will engage readers and help them to make good financial choices’.

She is an excellent contributor to a financial panel, an MC or delivers an excellent keynote on any financial topic at your next event.
