AI represents one of the most profound societal shifts we will witness in our lifetime.
I am thrilled to be part of this transformative era. As a mother, business owner, and digital entrepreneur, my journey has been defined by a passion for helping people and an excitement for leveraging technology to create meaningful change.
I grew up on the beautiful Central Coast NSW, where I developed a deep appreciation for community and creativity. My career began at sea, working in hospitality and service for high-net-worth individuals and their families aboard international superyachts. This role demanded exceptional attention to detail and the ability to navigate complex systems—skills I honed further while managing procurement and logistics for global operations.
Over that last two decades in based in the United States and Australia, I collaborated with over 90 international business owners and entrepreneurs, advising on maritime business, customs, insurance, and legal regulations while supporting more than 500 crew members with contracts, visas, and compliance. These experiences sharpened my ability to untangle intricate challenges and present clear, actionable strategies.
My interest in digital solutions began in 2008 when I designed websites for my first import business. However, the rapid advancements in AI over the past two years reignited my passion and opened new doors of possibility. I’ve immersed myself in learning, completing programs such as the eBusiness Institute Australia’s Champions Business Mentorship Program and Innovating with AI – AI Consultancy Project in Denver, Colorado. Most recently, I earned a certification in Artificial Intelligence: Business Strategies and Applications from the University of California, Berkeley Executive Education. I am now pursuing a Masters in Artificial Intelligence to deepen my expertise further.
These studies have been instrumental in shaping Southern Sky AI, providing AI consulting, web design, SEO, and digital security solutions. My mission is to empower businesses with tailored digital strategies, global expertise, and personalised support. I am particularly passionate about fostering financial independence and growth for entrepreneurs, creating opportunities for success and innovation.




Formal education has been a cornerstone of my journey. I hold a double degree in Arts and Law from the University of Newcastle, with a focus on sociology, maritime law, and intellectual property. These foundations have provided me with a unique perspective on both the human and technical aspects of business and technology.
