Trish’s 30+ background extends across private and public sectors, with extensive research, writing and community engagement experience in the Arts (galleries, museums and public art) and material culture Anthropology. This is complemented with her project management experience, which delivers successful quality projects and outcomes on time and within budget.

For the past 20years, Trish was a panel member and peer assessor for funding applications to Arts Queensland and Australia Council for the Arts which accompanies her experience on the other side of the fence – securing grant funding for communities. This gives her knowledge of how to define objectives and priorities relative to funding guidelines.

She has authored many publications and continues work as a curator and interpretive writer. Trish is also a proud descendant of the Yambina and Jangga people from central Queensland.
