What gets Liza out of bed?

An innate love of and connection with mother nature. The ocean gets me out of bed, its life affirming qualities and limitless power. The pure energy transfer from freezing water submersion in the Bass Strait, means that first thing every day you get to do one thing that scares you, that allows you to overcome your fears and nourish your mind, body and soul before you even get to your desk. Immersing myself in game changing digital technology solutions in global markets is the natural translation of this practice, swim local, think global.

Who are Liza’s role models?

Strong female leaders of colour. Great thinkers and poets, the architects, artists, strategic creators, song writers, mothers, academics whose actions and words are centered in ethical choices that understand we have the power to unmake and remake the world in the image of what we imagined it could be for our children.

What is the ONE Social issue that Liza would like to fix?

Climate catastrophe is my single minded social issue as it bleeds into and informs how we operate as human beings on the planet, it cases war, inequity, social disunity and destruction. We are in the midst of an emergency and every decision we make in the next ten years is impactful to the future of the planet.
