Belinda specialises in presentation skills, where her academic knowledge combines with humour and personal warmth to help participants learn in an easy and intuitive way.

When Belinda joined Maura Fay Workshops in 2006, she brought with her over 25 years of experience as a professional actor, teacher, director and producer. 

Belinda’s passion for teaching led her into corporate training where her warmth and humour quickly combined with her academic knowledge (she has a Bachelor of Arts from Sydney University as well as a Cert IV in Assessment and Workplace Training) to achieve remarkable success. 

Her energetic and pragmatic approach helps participants learn in an easy and intuitive way.  She has accomplished outstanding results with clients in both the public and private sectors, including Canon Australia, MBF and the Department of Defence.  

Despite her very busy training schedule, Belinda continues to act and teach.  She has taught at the prestigious National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA), the Australian Academy of Dramatic Art and the University of Western Sydney.  She boasts an extensive list of television, film, theatre and radio credits and works regularly in corporate videos and as a public speaker. 

There’s not much spare time to relax, but Belinda tries to enjoy the odd game of tennis and as many cryptic crosswords as her schedule allows.  She lives in Sydney with her husband Axel, a set designer.   They have two grown children, a daughter who has  followed in the ‘family business’ and is now an actress in the UK, and a son who is currently studying medicine in the United States.
