I am involved with the Membership Committee. I have also spoken at one Tax Institute event, and will present later this year at a Corporate Tax Master Class.

I was involved in establishing a charitable organisation that addresses Australia’s culture of passively accepting violence against women. Whilst my involvement with this organisation began with drafting their constitution and assisting them obtain DGR endorsement, it lead to me becoming an ambassador for the organisation, which included visiting schools and speaking about domestic violence.

Why did you join The Tax Institute?

The Tax Institute provides great forums to enable me to enhance my taxation knowledge.

Tax is one of the most technically challenging but incredibly interesting areas of the law. It is much more political than many other legal areas, which explains why it is constantly changing. Being part of this process is extremely rewarding professionally.

I love New York; it is such a big, busy and exciting city.
