After working 10 years in the finance/banking sector I found my calling in music festivals as a co-owner of Sunset Events, which was WA’s leading festival promoter for nearly two decades. More recently I co-founded Triple-1-Three, a brewing, venues and hospitality group. Now days it’s more like a 365-day mini-festival! I love creating great experiences and bringing people together, particularly at Freo.Social, one of WA’s leading performance venues.
