Hello and welcome to my online home. I’m Andrew Woodward. I am a former senior executive in general management and global marketing. I now lead a different kind of life between the sea and the trees in Bellingen on Australia’s east coast.
This site contains a bit of everything. There’s information on my former corporate career, an accommodation offering I own, my hobby of amateur or “ham” radio, and a documentary I created while working in radio.
These days, I’m not working and like doing things with nice people doing good things, and no malarkey!

I acknowledge the Gumbaynggirr people, the traditional owners of the Bellinger Valley and its surrounds. I pay my respects to elders past, present and emerging and extend that respect to all Aboriginal people.
