How did your start-up/business journey begin? ** I work with an existing not for profit organisation, World Vision Australia, that is a changemaker in Australia and in the globe. I started working with them on the 14th of October, however in the past 23 years, I have worked with the profit organisation ANZ Bank and in the not for profit organisations such as Opportunity International Australia, Many Rivers Microfinance and Baptist World Aid Australia. **2. What are you working on at the moment?  ** I am currently working on philanthropy and private funding for World Vision Australia. **3. What do you love about being a part of the Spacecubed community? ** I love being a part of the Spacecubed community full of innovators, entrepreneurs and changemakers. **4. Can you share with us one of your favourite success stories? ** One brief story is when I took a few entrepreneurs and directors of companies to India in 2008 to show them the country and its beauty and sadly the poverty they faced and how they could be a part of the solution and impact for a whole community and village.  One entrepreneur as part of his giving journey after the trip to India and the poverty that he was exposed to decided that he would be a changemaker and gave a significant donation and that in return has made a huge impact in the lives of the poor and vulnerable people in urban India. The work is ongoing and is changing lives in that specific community and village. **5. What do you hope to achieve in 2019/2020?  ** My hopes and dreams are to make a significant impact in the lives of the wealthy and the poor, by living my life with authentic love and serving people.
