About
I’m co-founder and CEO of Healthshare. I’m passionate about innovation, healthcare and social good.
I’m inspired by the emerging social innovation and enterprise sectors. I'm a collaborator and community builder who believes that change can happen on mass when those engaged are leveraging and collaborating with each other.
We founded Healthshare because of a belief that technology could change and improve the ‘old world’ way of sharing healthcare experiences and information.
I’m proud to work with a dedicated team that believe Healthshare is a positive force for anyone who faces a health challenge or wants to improve their health.
Our goal is to build Australia’s leading interactive health network where Australians come for quality health information and community support.
