Motivated to influence - better experiences, better systems and better places, for everyone. Evaluation + is how I think about it - always with an eye to translating the learning into knowledge and change for the better. Passionate about working with our partners to influence change for Indigenous Australians; big fan of co-design because it puts on the brakes at that early critical point when everyone’s in a rush; and a weaver of methods and techniques to keep it bespoke and interesting.
