My role: CEO & Co-Founder, Australia

What it is:
Skills U is a career development platform designed to help people unlock their potential through skills assessment, personal coaching, and real career mapping. It’s built to serve individuals who are often missed by traditional pathways — and to give employers better tools to recognise real talent.

What I’m doing:
I’m leading the launch of Skills U in the Australian market. That includes partnerships with employers and educators, national strategy, and working closely with our global team to localise the platform for maximum impact.

Why it matters:
Not everyone fits into a system built for degrees and resumes. Skills U helps people prove what they can do — not just what they’ve done. I believe this is the future of work.

My role: Director of Community & Partnerships

What it is:
OnTheMonee is reimagining financial wellbeing for hospitality workers. A Cashless digital tipping solution for hospitality! Automated tip calculations, digital payment cards and an employee engagement tool for the hospitality industry!

At the heart of it is MOORE — a mobile app that gives hospitality teams access to exclusive rewards, financial tools, benefits, and a sense of community that’s long been missing from the industry.

What I’m doing:
I lead community strategy and partnerships — building the ecosystem around MOORE. That includes onboarding hospitality venues, growing brand alliances, and making sure every staff member who joins the app feels valued, supported, and seen.

We’re creating more than a perks app — we’re building a movement that puts hospitality staff first.

My role: Volunteer Mentor

What it is:
Raise is a national not-for-profit delivering early intervention mentoring programs in high schools across Australia. It gives young people trusted adults to talk to — when it matters most.

What I’m doing:
I volunteer my time as a mentor, supporting students one-on-one each week over the school year. It’s about showing up, listening, and helping them navigate life and build confidence.

Why it matters:
Not everyone has someone in their corner. If I can be that person for a young adult — just for an hour a week — that’s something worth doing.

On a personal level this is one of the most important things I’ve done in my life. It’s not for money, it’s for my community, and food for my soul.
