Wow. Last Friday at the National LGBTQ+ Inclusion Awards, I was absolutely stunned (and incredibly honored!) to be named co-recipient of the Network Leader of the Year award alongside the amazing Luke Nixon. The individual recognition is incredibly touching, but it wouldn't be possible without the most passionate and dedicated group of people you could ask for: the Proud@TheStar LGBTQI+ employee network group. So, to my entire network – thank you so much! It's been an absolute joy co-leading you all.The Star Entertainment Group itself was also recognized as a Gold Employer and joint Employer of the Year. This recognition truly reflects the work, time, and love we all put into creating a truly inclusive business environment. I feel incredibly blessed and lucky to work for a company that values Diversity and Inclusion, and its people, so highly.A special thank you goes to George Hughes, who also won the Executive of the Year award. Having such a visible role model and someone so generous with their time and knowledge has been a true honor. Working with you, George, has been a privilege, and I will always cherish the opportunity.There are so many people I'd love to thank, but especially:* The sensational Jules Pooley, Amanda Dobson , Ian Brown, my co leads Luman Ibrahim and Jayden Murray – and all the members of our Proud network.* Nina Winton you are an absolute superstar, and who knows, maybe I'll be reporting to you one day! (heart emoji)* Justine Russell, you've always encouraged me to step outside my comfort zone and reach my full potential. I wouldn't be here without your unwavering support.* My past leads, Kha-han Dao, Khoi and also Melissa Tsang you've all had an impact on my role in Proud. * And lastly, Jess Mayers our PID Relationship Manager.Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

    Today 17 May is International Day Against hom*ophobia, Biphobia, Interphobia & Transphobia (IDAHOBIT) which celebrates LGBTQIA+ people globally and raises awareness for the work still needed to combat discrimination.Like myself, most LGBTQI+ people have been subjected to bullying, harassment or discrimination and a day like IDAHOBIT day can really show the importance of visibility. Whether that comes from a person seeing themselves in representation or starting important and respectful conversations about why inclusivity and diversity is integral to our workplaces and lives. I feel extremely lucky to work for The Star Entertainment Group and be able to be who I am everyday, and feel included and seen. I also feel safe in knowing that we have our Proud employee network group continually working on ways that we can ensure everyone can feel protected, seen and heard.

    Absolutely excited and honoured to be recognised in the AWEI Inclusion Awards. And just as excited to see George nominated as well. Words can’t express the gratitude and love I have for what our Proud team do and the changes they’ve achieved in creating inclusion and equality across our business ❤️🏳️🌈
