The Permaculture Research Institute of Australia

I've had a long term career in consumer goods marketing for large international groups - Unilever, J&J, Brown Forman Beverages, Skins Compression Garments, Maybelline Cosmetics and others. I've spent the last 12 years working fro myself in various capacities - consulting, contracting, creating and coaching.

Over the last few years, I've been moving steadily over to the perma-side of life and am looking to use my experience and skill set to (ideally) support NFP and community based endeavours and the whole area of positive, or audacious, ageing. In addressing this area I have completed the TAFE Intro course, PDC and Permaculture Teacher Training.

I am a strong believer in taking Permaculture into the workplace, schools and community as a strong ethical and principled training tool.

Ive started a small perma-exercise business for myself which is all about de-powering the suburban garden, and getting exercise through physical garden activity .. no noise, no powered tools ... join "the quiet garden evolution" on facebook or at www.thequietgardener.com.au

My main website is www.dreamer.org.au and is an accumulator of experience and work preferences - ideally for NFP/Communities - marketing, coaching/mentoring, facilitation, world cafe, permaculture, wellbeing and fitness, audacious ageing.
