Executive Director Advocacy and Engagement

I am a passionate advocate for social enterprise because they are an innovative breed of businesses and are working tirelessly to bring positive change to their communities and the world.

At Social Traders I have been building the social enterprise procurement community within Queensland. Leveraging on the successful outcomes from the Queensland market, I am now leading our advocacy efforts for policy and funding support at a national scale.

I believe that if more business and governments embedded social enterprise into their supply chains, we could create economic empowerment and a safer, fairer and more sustainable future for all Australians.

I have experience consulting to government and working in large institutions. I have also been a founder of small business and social enterprise. My education journey began with a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Melbourne majoring in Political Science and History. I also have a Graduate Certificate, International Relations from Deakin University and a Master of Business Administration (Executive) from Sydney Business School.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their Elders past, present and emerging. We extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
