About me

Dsc06453

I'm a social entrepreneur, activist, organiser, burner, doofer, dreamer, project junkie. I've organized conferences, run election coverage, produced music festivals and worked and consulted for political parties, non-profits, start ups and government entities. While at university I founded Australian non-profit youth media organization Vibewire and spent almost eight years building the organization before leaving in March 2008 to pursue my dream of living and working overseas. I spent two years as the first Social and Digital Marketing Manager at Ashoka: Innovators for the Public before moving to San Francisco in July to become Senior Social Media Consultant at Small Act. I was one of the instigators of the #4Change and #SocEntChat twitter conversations and I dabble in film, writing and djing.
