2022 August: What a buzz it was to both attend the Women in Emerging Tech (WiET) conference and to moderate the “How to get a job in emerging tech” panel. The event was held in Melbourne, hosted at Deloittes and partnered with the Victorian Government. Apparently my superpower is to succinctly summarise what someone is saying and simplify it for the audience.

2022 July: I was genuinely surprised (and thrilled) to be awarded the University of Queensland “Mentor of the Year” Award. Since retiring in Feb 2020 I have felt a little lost, and it was reengaging in voluntary efforts that I regained my energy and focus. I thank UQ for the opportunities they have given me, and am thrilled that my contributions have been valued by the entrepreneurial students in the Ventures Program.
