An Australian Wikipedia editor.

Possible conflict of interest
I've been employed by Wikimedia Australia as Executive Officer since October 2022.
Interests
I'm interested in how people learn to edit Wikipedia, and what supports them to become long term editors.
In February 2026 I was elected Chair of the ESEAP Hub Steering Committee until May 2027. I represent Wikimedia Australia as a member of the ESEAP Community Connectors group (previously ESEAP Preparatory Council) with a focus on supporting our region (East, South East Asia and the Pacific) and developing the ESEAP Hub.
I tend to be a 'drive-by' editor and fix or update any articles as I see them, however I am particularly interested in Australian literature, women and gender diverse communities, the arts, STEM and coverage of both South Australia and Australia more broadly.
