I am an ASIC-registered and Clean Energy Regulator-accredited auditor, authorised to undertake and sign off on audits under the Corporations Act and the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act. I have more than 20 years of experience in audit and assurance, with deep expertise in sustainability reporting, energy, and agribusiness.
I was the first Australian auditor outside the Big Four to complete a sustainability assurance engagement under the new Climate Reporting Regime for Yancoal Australia Ltd (ASX: YAL). I was also Lead Partner on the audit of Pacific Blue, previously Pacific Hydro, and have extensive experience auditing renewable energy businesses and reporters subject to the Corporations Act and National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting legislation.
I am a leader of SW’s sustainability strategy and am recognised for my strong technical accounting capabilities and practical application of emerging financial reporting and assurance standards. I regularly deliver technical updates to clients on developments in financial reporting, audit, and sustainability.
I am actively involved in the agribusiness sector as SW’s representative on the Australia China Business Council’s Agribusiness Victorian Working Group and as a member of the Agribusiness Australia Victorian Committee. I am known for my collaborative approach and ability to deliver efficient audits in complex environments, including those with lean finance teams.
