I'm Ria, and I'm all about innovation, startups, communities, and impactful collaborations. I've been fortunate to explore a diverse range of fields throughout my career, from corporate work to academia, nonprofits, and consultancy. I specialize in business development, partnerships, stakeholder management, gender and international development, public engagement, events, and program management.I often work on projects that advance women's initiatives, thriving within the intersections of diversity, inclusive design, technology, and sustainability. Currently, I'm the Co-Founder and Head of Partnerships at Panublix, and I also work as a freelance researcher and project manager involved in exciting discovery projects supported by various grant schemes.Beyond my professional endeavors, I have a strong appetite for creativity and personal growth. I'm certified as a Red Cross Psychological First Aider and Mental Health First Aid Australia. I'm also carbon literate certified, and I love facilitating Lego Serious Play sessions. You might even catch a glimpse of my augmented reality street art at Brisbane's cultural precinct!Feel free to connect for any social impact chats and opportunities.#socent #wee #futureofwork #tech4good #startups #designthinking #feminism #multipotentiality #neurodiversity #regenerative #weaving #textiles
