Why did you choose True?

I love the world of entrepreneurship & innovation. When I heard about True, I knew that I wanted to be a part of this world every day and play a part in scaling a company that genuinely wants to do business in a better way, helping founders / companies reimagine products and services for the future.

How would you describe your job to a five-year old?

I get to tell stories and create experiences that connect people. This sparks curiosity about what we do and how we do it so that everyone wants to get involved.

What do you love most and least about your job?

I love the variety and the interesting people I get to work with. I don’t love that I can’t say yes to everything (even though I usually want to!)

Name an idea or company that reimagined a business or industry — one you wish you’d thought of.

Canva – it’s an incredible business idea that democratises design skill and really empowers all kinds of people, brands, companies, charities etc to level up on their brand outputs. Also the fact that it’s one of the few unicorn start-ups that are actually profitable, they have strong moral values and direct a lot of profits toward charitable efforts globally. As an expat, I love to see Aussie brands paving the way!

Which person or people helped shape and inspire who you are today?

I’ve been lucky to have a few colleagues that I’ve worked with along the way who have encouraged me by sharing new opportunities or supporting new routes I’ve wanted to explore. And of course, my mum - she taught me the importance of continuous education, hard work, a love of travel and the power of a pivot (she has enjoyed three very different career paths whilst also juggling being a working mother).

Celebrating Women

Did you know that 80% of consumer spending is done by women (a total of $20 trillion) and yet only 2% of all VC Capital is in all-women led businesses. These numbers shed a disappointing light on the industry - and business landscape more broadly - and so we invited the brilliant women of our community to discuss topics such as this on International Women's Day in a panel hosted at True House.
