ABOUT ME
Strategist . Speaker . Advisor
I’ve spent more than two decades at the intersection of technology and business – first building and running agencies, then helping hundreds of organisations figure out their digital strategy.
When AI started shifting from interesting to urgent, I was already deep in it – not as an academic, but as a practitioner working alongside real businesses trying to work out what it means for them.
Today I work with leaders, teams and associations across Australia and New Zealand who want to move from “we should probably do something about AI” to actually doing it – confidently, sensibly, and without the chaos.
I’m also a twice-published author, TEDx speaker, former official Meta/Facebook Trainer, and recipient of the ICT Woman of the Year award at the iAwards among other national and state-wide awards. I’ve spoken at hundreds of events across Asia Pacific and worked with organisations ranging from government agencies to small businesses.
Originally from Wellington, NZ. Lived in the UK 7 years, Australia 20 years. AU/NZ dual citizen. Currently splitting time between New Zealand and Australia.
