Catherine grew up on a farm in northern NSW where her family still live. She left home to go to University and lived the city life for quite a few years. Life has taken her from the farm to Brisbane, Sydney, London and back to Canberra. Since being in Canberra she has reconnected with her passion for rural communities and helping girls to expand their horizons.

During the week Catherine is a Change Management consultant, on the weekends you will find her hanging out with her kids, dogs, cat and probably cooking a lot! She also volunteers for The Girls Leadership Network in Canberra. Oh, and her favourite holiday destination is still the family farm!
