The Type 1 Diabetes Family Centre is an Australia-first centre that supports more than 2000 families impacted by type 1 diabetes with a unique combination of clinical care, mental healthcare, education programs, peer support and advocacy. As a co-founder of the Family Centre, I developed its vision, mission and strategy, and worked with our Board to design, construct, and fit-out our purpose-built A$3M facility. Upon launch, I established its excellent clinical services, strong governance, fundraising channels, expert team, powerful brand, and impactful programs. The Family Centre has been recognised both nationally and internationally, with the Australian Diabetes Educator of the Year Award, and the Australian Charity Awards Outstanding Charity Award, as a Finalist in the Telstra Business Awards, and as one of the top 100 online communities in the world by Facebook. I have personally been recognised for my performance with a scholarship to attend Executive Education at the Stanford University Graduate School of Business, and with two Business News 40 under 40 Awards – the People’s Choice Award and the HBF Community/Not-for-Profit Award.

My Fellowship to the Facebook Community Leadership Program recognised the Type 1 Diabetes Family Centre's digital health community as one of the top 100 online communities in the world. I participated in a 12-month leadership development program, starting and finishing in Silicon Valley, which involved intensive education in relation to online strategy, governance, branding, sustainability, and community development, and a funding partnership with Facebook to accelerate the Family Centre's work.

I managed a project that assessed the risks related to climate-sensitive communicable diseases (typhoid, diarrhoea and dengue fever) across 2,500 households and ten project sites in the Fiji Islands. I designed and implemented community-based interventions to prevent disease, working with people from diverse cultural backgrounds and low health literacy. The dengue resource I developed has been used in the management of multiple outbreaks across the Pacific since 2014. During the project, I was responsible for managing multiple sensitive stakeholder relationships, including with the project's funding partners, the World Health Organization, UNDP and the Global Environment Fund, local and regional Red Cross actors, and community leaders.
