About
Working in the hospitality and the film and television industries, sustainability, accounting firms, financial planning, and hi-tech start-ups has created a rich tapestry of skills and knowledge that makes me who I am today.
The tapestry includes:
Business Administration Roadmap and Implementation
Financial Accounting, Management, Budgets & Planning
Grant Applications and Acquittals
Human Resources and Recruitment
Risk Management
R & D Tax Incentive Management, Analysis and Remittance
Strategic Marketing and implementation
Volunteering for boards and organisations, gives me a broader sense of community. I’ve previously been on the organising committees for Relay for Life - Mildura and Sunraysia Sustainability Festival, Treasurer for a non-profit childcare centre in North Adelaide. Most recently I have joined the Governing Council for Walkerville Primary School and its Finance Committee.
A busy young family frequently sees me at the Tennis Tournament or Aussie Rules match, down the beach or walking the trails of the Adelaide Hills. Other interests include cinema, financial investing, music, and reading non-fictional books on current social and global issues.
