Community Manager @ The Creative C0-operative

The Creative Co-Operative is Australia's first startup agency that is 100% owned, led and operated by migrant Women of Colour focused on lifting the economic access barriers faced by Wo C.
We do this by engaging Wo C in paid professional work across design, marketing, and digital projects.
This work, in turn, helps fund our community projects to directly amplify and support the Wo C community.
To date we have provided 30+ paid opportunities for Women of Colour and we just turned 6 months old the other week.
If you heard about impact projects like #Share The Platform and the Curious About Culture Festival – we were behind them too.
