I consider myself an entrepreneur. I am Co-founder of FitUsIn, an online booking site for gyms and trainers. I also work at Freelancer.com as an Account Manager. Every day, I help customers learn how to engage freelancers. I help them identify and award the most suitable freelancer for the job. It often involves educating people about technical things, like designing and developing a website. I'm a cyclist and a customer experience enthusiast. I'm starting to learn basic programming and I'm always up for an adventure. My past experience is varied, having worked across multiple disciplines and varying businesses as a Consultant at PwC, gaining event management experience from my involvement with TEDxMacquarieUniversity, gaining sales and account management experience as Head of Sponsorship at Podio and early venture creation with several other startups. I also hold a Bachelor of Innovation and Entrepreneurship from the University of Adelaide.

I have a passion for innovative ideas, new technology, the future of education and employment.
