I work at the heart of leadership, education and global opportunity.
My work has taken me across Australia, the Pacific, Latin America and Europe, where I’ve supported youth leadership initiatives, delivered training programs and worked alongside governments, NGOs, universities and community organisations. Across these contexts, one thing has remained consistent: leadership is shaped far more by who you are than what you do.
I’m the Founding Director of the Global Institute for Leadership, a platform focused on practical leadership and entrepreneurship education for emerging leaders, particularly in regional and remote communities. Through courses, conversations and programs, the Institute aims to equip people with tools they can actually use in their work, communities and careers.
Alongside this, I am the President and Founder of the Pacific–Australia Youth Association Inc. (PAYA), supporting youth leadership summits and regional engagement across the Pacific.
I’ve volunteered extensively in public diplomacy, international education and policy-focused initiatives, including work connected to the Pacific islands, Latin America, Asia and Europe.
This website brings together my leadership programs, podcast conversations and project work in one place. Whether through courses, storytelling or collaboration, my focus is on creating pathways for people to grow, lead and contribute meaningfully - wherever they are in the world.
