Operations Coordinator
Born in the Whadjuk region of Western Australia, Matty now lives on Melukerdee country in the far south of Tasmania. They are transgender, neurodivergent and disabled. They bring a wide range of experience in human rights advocacy across state, national and international settings.
Matty’s specialisation is assisting small non-profit organisations and human rights campaigns as a generalist, contributing IT, technical, social media, governance and administrative supports. Their favourite aspect to this type of work is empowering people working in these organisation and campaigns to build on their shared strengths.
At the time of writing, Matty’s special interest is the integration of chicken composting into hyperlocal food production and distribution systems. In other words, they like keeping chickens in the garden to feed their family and neighbours.
