About Me

“I'm a systems thinker, who is passionate about bringing my point of difference to support whatever projects or organisations I'm supporting, so outcomes and impacts are delivered to maximum effect. My broad research and evaluation background means I'm particularly good at being a 'critical' friend - asking probing questions - and getting to the heart of matters. At the governance table this means I'm good at testing our thinking, our assumptions, and our evidence, so we can feel assured we are exercising our role as governors as effectively as possible - and ultimately helping make a positive difference from our collective mahi. I have five years experience in bringing my unique skill set and experience to the board table, along side my 15+ years of professional experience.”
