About Me

"I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. Kindness goes a long way." - Maya Angelou

What do you do at Blackbird?

I work with Rick, Niki and Sam to organise and maximise their time so they can focus on what they do best, finding and investing in great Australian and New Zealand start-ups.

What did you do before Blackbird?

I worked with Stu Gregor, co-founder of Four Pillars Gin and before this with restaurateur and food writer Bill Granger. Basically, I love eating food and drinking great Australian gin!

What do you believe that others do not?

That if you dig deep, hospitality will be at the heart of every great business that you know and love.
