I worked as a lawyer in Brazil before making the decision to move to Australia in 2022. Seeking a more challenging role, I conducted online research about Pathway to Aus and was highly impressed by the company’s mission and values.

Australia’s multiculturalism, perfect weather, and stunning landscapes are aspects I truly appreciate. The warmth and inclusivity of the Australian people towards individuals from diverse backgrounds make it a fantastic place to call home.

I am thrilled to be a part of the Pathway to Aus team.

Suri Anderhold

Suri Anderhold

Office Manager from Johannesburg, South Africa

Pathway to Aus assisted my partner and I in applying for a student visa when we were in South Africa. About 2 months after we arrived in Australia Nick and Brad took me under their wing and offered me a job, and here I am, almost three years later and still loving every moment of it! By far the best company ever to be a part of. When people ask what I love most about Australia, I can’t name just one thing specifically. It’s Australia, what’s not to love! My favourite place in the world, aside from Australia, is Switzerland.
Kaitlin Hillery

I was working in the working holiday industry when a friend mentioned there was a position opening up at Pathway to Aus. I was looking for a more challenging and rewarding role, so I did some research online about Pathway to Aus, loved what the company stands for and the rest is history.

What I love the most about Australia are the beaches, rainforests, sunshine and chilled vibes. Outside of Australia, my favourite place is Bali.

Natasha Garland

Natasha Garland

Migration Assistant from Cardiff, Wales

My fiancé found Pathway to Aus when looking for the perfect course to study in Australia. When we arrived here, I took the opportunity to apply for an open position as I could not believe how dedicated the team at Pathway to Aus were. I just wanted to be part of something that gives so much opportunity to people from all over the world and I have loved every minute since joining this little diverse family.

I love Australia for the beautiful beaches, national parks and laidback lifestyle.
My favourite place in the world aside from home (as that is always where my heart will be), would probably be Paris. The romance, the art and museums, the food and wine all make it the perfect weekend getaway. Not forgetting that Disneyland is just outside the city if you want to channel your inner child and have lots of fun with Mickey and the gang.

Bart Hutchinson

Bart Hutchinson

Registered Migration Agent

I was born in Mt Isa in central Queensland but grew up in Coffs Harbour, New South Wales. I taught English as a second language for around 13 years, 3 years in Russia, 1 ½ years in Vietnam and 2 years in Japan, plus 6 ½ years on the Gold Coast, Australia. During this time I met Nick Yock, founder of Pathway to Aus.
I decided to make the change to become a Migration Agent in 2019 as I wanted a career where I can help people realise their dreams of living, studying and possibly immigrating to Australia. I love this country and want to have the opportunity to share it with people of different countries and cultures. As a result, I studied the Graduate Diploma of Migration Law and Practice which was completed in November 2019 and am now waiting to sit the Capstone Exam to become a registered Migration Agent.

I am excited to be working at Pathway to Aus and I look forward to assisting you in your future applications.

Visa Assistant

I’m Xavier Uro, and it is my privilege to be part of a student’s international education endeavor. For the last five years, I’ve dedicated myself to helping students pursue their dreams through international education in Australia. My journey in this field has been more than just a career—it’s been a calling. As a former Education Counselor and now Visa Agent, I’ve had the privilege of guiding students as they navigate the challenges and triumphs of studying abroad, a process I know can be both exciting and overwhelming. My work has taken me to Australia on two occasions, where I’ve explored the education landscapes of Victoria and New South Wales. Those experiences were more than just professional milestones; they opened my eyes to the real, life-changing impact that education in a new country can have on a person. I’ve seen students grow not just academically, but personally, as they discover new cultures, broaden their perspectives, and unlock potential they didn’t know they had. That’s what drives me—being part of that transformation, helping someone take a step toward a future they never thought possible. For me, this is more than work; it’s about making a lasting difference in someone’s life, one student at a time.

Gabriela Barreto

Gabriela Barreto

Adm Assistant | Customer Service | Student Experience - Brazil

Despite my love for my home country, Brazil, I’ve lived abroad several times—in Hungary, Colombia, and now Australia—visiting 34 countries along the way and developing a passion for travel and the self-knowledge that comes from immersing myself in different cultures. With interests in self-development, academics, marketing, and travel, I felt that working in migration would combine everything I love. Moving to Australia inspired me to shift from a career in research engineering to something more aligned with my passions, and I joined Pathway To Aus, where I now manage Reception, Customer Service, Student Support, Administrative Support, and assist with social media. Outside of Brazil and Australia, my favorite place is South America, especially Colombia, Peru, and Bolivia.
