Georgia is a fundraising and development professional with a long and varied career across a number of sectors. Starting in transport and somehow progressing into the arts, Georgia then found herself in the not-for-profit sector, working on some of the country’s biggest events and fundraising initiatives. It was whilst working at ScreenWest that Georgia discovered an affinity for working with dynamic, passionate and creative people.

Georgia’s big love is music and she has long been passionate about local music. A gig-goer all her life, Georgia’s love of live, local music started with Perth’s punk scene in the very early ’80s and, whilst moving through many different genres over the years, her love of live music has never waned. Georgia is also an experienced artist manager, and has served as a juror in the WA Screen Awards, National Live Music Awards, Australian Women in Music Awards and WA Country Music Awards. Georgia’s role involves securing grants and sponsorships, whilst building lasting relationships with like-minded organisations.
