Bio
I am what you may call a ‘career’ fundraiser having made a deliberate choice to dedicate my working life to our unique sector over 17 years ago. I have worked for charities big and small in both Australia and the UK across a multitude of fundraising disciplines; building brand new programs from scratch and leading large teams in the strategic development of multi-million dollar programs. I hold a passionate commitment to raising the bar of professional fundraising so we can raise more money and continue to change the world.
