I have worked across the for-purpose, government and consulting sectors for over 25 years. At The Myer Foundation & Sidney Myer Fund, I have responsibility for the sustainability and environment program. A grantmaking focus in the current period is supporting climate action that accelerates an equitable, net zero aligned transition in Australia.Prior to this role, I was Executive Officer of Aussie Farmers Foundation, managing a grantmaking program supporting rural, regional and remote communities across a number of areas including disaster relief and recovery and sustainability.I came to philanthropy after many years working in strategic communications and media management in a range of non-profit organisations including national youth mental health foundation headspace, SunSmart at Cancer Council Victoria, the Victorian Bushfire Appeal Fund and youth homelessness charity Ladder, and as a consultant at Currie Communications.
