I have been working in the travel, tourism and working holiday industry since 2011, so moving into migration and education was something that interested me and seemed like a logical next step. In 2019 I was looking to make this step and Pathway to Aus was looking for someone to work with our clients in the UK and Europe and the rest is history! I love Australia because of its multicultural cities, relaxed lifestyle and great weather. Outside of Australia my favourite place in the world is Umbria, Italy.

I have been with Pathway to Aus from the beginning, I helped start it with Nick in 2012. Prior to Pathway To Aus, I was working as a Project Manager for a construction company. I have a solid foundation of experience in the construction industry which has helped me to advise students who are looking to study trades in Australia. I love Australia because it’s home. It doesn’t matter where I go in the world, there is nowhere like Australia. Outside of Australia, my favourite place to visit Penang, Malaysia. It is an amazing place with wonderful food and friendly people.
