I work at the Inspire Foundation. My job is to work with staff and young people to effectively communicate what we do at Inspire, and the things we find out along the way to the kinds of audiences where decisions are made about public policy!

Sound easy? Well it's made a lot easier simply because we partner with hundreds of amazing people from all over Australia who drive the Inspire initiatives and work with us to improve what we do and how we do it - which means you all need to get involved! (my alter-ego is constantly trying to recruit people to work with Inspire!)

I have a double BA (Hons) in International Studies and Social Science but I've also always really valued LIFE experience... educations a great thing, but experience is just as useful - which is why I love working directly with young people from all over Australia through the Inspire Foundation - people from all walks of life have equally important contributions to make! (sometimes the smallest act can make the most surprising difference!

I'm a fanatical bike-rider who just bought her first car (I feel like I've betrayed my inner-self, which is why it spends most of the time in carport), and I love doing ordinary stuff like watching movies, gardening, playing soccer and hanging with my mates...

My life is pretty normal I guess, and I like it that way. Things could be heaps worse, which is why I'm a member of Act Now - I want my life - and the lives of others - to get HEAPS better!
