About Me

I'm the General Counsel, Compliance Officer and Company Secretary at Blackbird. I grew up in Sydney, studied law and international studies (Japanese) at UTS and spent 10 years living and working in London before relocating to Sydney in 2015. I love travelling, foreign languages and culture, going to the theatre, watching the tennis and rugby league (go the Parra Eels!) and listening to cheesy 90s rnb/rap music.

"Surround yourself with people who take their work seriously, but not themselves."

What do you do at Blackbird?

I oversee all of the legal, compliance and risk aspects relating to the Blackbird group, including our funds and the investments we make into startups.

What did you do before Blackbird?

Previously, I was Head of Legal & Compliance at CHAMP Private Equity (CPE Capital) in Sydney and Head of Legal (Europe) at Pantheon Ventures in London. Before that, I worked as a solicitor in corporate/financial services law at law firms based in both Sydney and London.

What do you believe that others do not?

That being kind and empathetic is a strength, not a weakness.

What are you most excited about?

Collaborating with people to come up with creative solutions to complex problems.
