A practical approach
I had the privilege of sharing my views on AI Risk at the AI Security Summit, where senior leaders and practitioners came together to translate high-level fear into practical guardrails. In this blog I share a short playbook of the key themes and real-world strategies.
It was great to chat with Lieutenant General Michelle McGuinness, the National Cyber Security Coordinator, about the Australian Cyber Security Strategy as well as key initiatives, strategic imperatives and challenges that CISOs must navigate.
I appreciate an opportunity to contribute to the ongoing conversation on cyber threat landscape, risk and AI governance.
I had a pleasure of sharing some practical lessons on building resilience at the Cybersecurity Summit.
I touched on sustainable performance strategies and the importance of body, emotions, mind and purpose in preventing burnout.
Protecting systems starts with protecting the people who run them.
I had the privilege of joining a panel discussion on the rapidly evolving regulatory landscape and its impact on businesses worldwide. With cyber threats, operational disruptions, and AI risks on the rise, governments are strengthening regulations to drive security, resilience and accountability across industries.
In Europe, major frameworks like DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act), NIS2 (Network and Information Security Directive) and the EU AI Act are reshaping how organisations approach cybersecurity, operational resilience, and responsible AI governance. But this shift isn’t limited to the EU – regulatory scrutiny is increasing globally, from the U.S. to APAC, with frameworks reinforcing risk management, third-party oversight and AI transparency.
A huge thank you to my fellow panelists and engaged audience members for an insightful discussion.
I just spent an incredible week immersed in Aboriginal culture, where I had the privilege of working shoulder to shoulder with First Nations organisations as part of my AGSM Executive MBA journey.
This experiential learning project allowed me to take the academic knowledge from all my previous MBA courses and apply it in real-world contexts. What a great way to wrap up the program!
It was also an opportunity to deliver the final client presentation to Indigiearth, a 100% Aboriginal-owned native foods business, concluding the capstone strategic consulting engagement we’ve been working on this term.
Learning directly from Elders and community members enriched my understanding of Aboriginal traditions, values and the profound connection to land that underpins Indigenous enterprises. I’m proud to have been a part of this journey, bringing together cultural respect and strategic vision.

I had a fantastic time on an international MBA exchange at one of the top universities in China, Fudan University in Shanghai, for the Global Network for Advanced Management program.
It was an chance to learn first hand about innovation in China and meet some amazing Executive MBA students from the world’s top business schools.
In this 15 minute interview I spoke with Ed Kennedy of CSO Australia, reflecting on Australian cyber security incidents of 2022, leadership and my approach and insights to cyber security at Linkly.
I had a pleasure to participate in the keynote panel discussion on cyber security Board reporting at the CISO Executive Network event in Sydney. It was an insightful discussion where I had a chance to share my views on aligning on Board expectations, developing relationships and tailoring your message for maximum impact.
We also covered common challenges and strategies for winning the Board over as well as good practices for reporting. It was a great opportunity to contribute to the community and learn from my peers in the industry.
