MC & Moderator

With rich experience at major public events and in-house gatherings, I offer a warm, engaging and insightful presence for MC-ing or moderating your next conference, training day or event.

Over the years I’ve been fortunate to MC and lead conversations at large corporate and wellbeing conferences, including Sydney’s Workplace Wellness Festival, the HR and L&D Innovation and Tech Fest, Happiness & Its Causes and the Thriving Workplace event.

My involvement in the landmark Happiness and its Causes conference in NSW has been a career highlight, for the past three years moderating panels and hosting fireside chats with some of the world’s most inspiring thinkers, changemakers and researchers in the field of human flourishing.

Together, we’ve discussed fascinating topics ranging from tackling the mental health crisis through to living an ethical life, and so much more.

As someone who has taken the stage as a speaker and facilitator at corporate and public events both here and overseas, I understand what’s required to hold the audience in the palm of your hand, and to keep the conversation on track and the energy moving.

No matter the audience or the choice of topic, I aim to bring both together — drawing out insights, creating connection and sparking shared learnings.

Are diversity and inclusion good for your wellbeing?

Diversity and inclusion are recognised to have many benefits for society such as reducing racism and discrimination, increasing productivity at work, and providing a balance of views and opinions. However, are diversity and inclusion also good for your personal wellbeing?
