AI Training Facilitator @ Pathfindr · Brisbane

I help people get real value from Microsoft Copilot and AI at work

I design and deliver AI training for everyone from everyday users to executive teams: workshops, talks and hands-on sessions that make AI practical, plain-English and useful from day one.

what I focus on

Making AI clearer, more practical and less intimidating.

Three threads run through everything I do, whether that's a keynote, a workshop or a one-page guide.

Microsoft Copilot & 365 adoption

Where Copilot genuinely helps, where it doesn't, and how to build habits that stick inside the tools people already use every day.

Practical AI literacy

Plain-English foundations for people at every level: what AI can do, how to use it responsibly, and how to judge its output with confidence.

Workshops & facilitation

Sessions designed for the people in the room, not the slide deck. Concept first, then hands-on application, so learning turns into capability.

about

A practical AI trainer with a digital adoption background.

I'm an AI Training Facilitator at Pathfindr, an AI accelerator that helps organisations become AI-ready. I design and deliver training, curriculum and workshop content for audiences ranging from everyday users to corporate executives.

Before Pathfindr, my background was in AI and Microsoft 365 training, with a specialism in Microsoft Copilot, and in digital adoption for small-to-medium businesses and government teams. That experience still shapes how I teach: technology only sticks when people feel confident, supported and included.

My work has always centred on helping people build confidence with new tools. Not just knowing what a tool can do, but understanding where it fits, when to use it, and how to make it useful in everyday work.
