Bio

I’ve been with Unilever for 8 years and took the reigns as Head of HR for Australia and New Zealand in early 2023. While I love partnering with teams to help drive their business and people agenda, my deep passion lies in redefining work and helping organizations build a diverse and inclusive culture where everyone belongs. This is deep rooted in my purpose to “Create Belonging for myself and others” by living my values of positivity, curiosity & connections. Some of my key achievements at Unilever include designing and implementing Disability inclusion agenda, spearheading progressive policy changes like Gender affirmation leave, leave for pregnancy loss & fertility treatments while experimenting with new working models like 4-day work week and embedding Agile as a way of working. I have 18+ years of HR experience, in both developing and developed markets, across a variety of roles including Learning, Talent Management, Wellbeing, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I), HR Business partnering and Organization Transformation. On a personal front, I get energy from spending time with my husband and daughter, reading, doing yoga, and staying connected with friends and family all over the world!
