Senior AI strategist and advisor helping executives, founders, and enterprises build the human capability to lead in an AI-first world — with 22+ years of experience at the intersection of people, systems, and transformation.
I'm a senior AI strategist and advisor with 22+ years spanning Fortune 500 boardrooms, startup ecosystems, and the global stage — helping leaders close the gap between what AI promises and what organisations actually need.
Former Chief Design Officer at ASB Bank. Enterprise transformation leader at Commonwealth Bank and NAB. Creator of the 7 Conversations of Change framework. 3× published author. Keynote speaker who has shared stages with Brené Brown and Guy Kawasaki.
Today I lead Wonder & Wander — an AI coaching and advisory practice built on one conviction: the businesses that thrive aren't the ones that adopted AI fastest. They're the ones that adopted it most consciously.
Whether you're an individual leader finding your AI footing, a team ready to build real capability, or an enterprise needing embedded strategic guidance — there's a path designed for exactly where you are right now.
The complete AI mastery program on your schedule. 12 weeks of structured modules covering everything from AI auditing to agentic workflows — with lifetime access and all future updates.
The flagship experience. A live cohort of maximum 12 leaders going through the full Wonder Conductor curriculum together — with weekly group sessions, direct access to Sarah, and real-time implementation support.
An embedded advisory engagement designed for organisations ready to move beyond pilots and build lasting AI capability across their teams. Bespoke, intensive, and transformation-focused.
A structured, sequenced program that builds AI capability the way change actually works — from mindset to mastery, not the other way around.
The Third Intelligence isn't artificial. It's what emerges in the space between human and AI — and it's the most important conversation of our time.
Three published books exploring wonder, entrepreneurship, and authenticity — and a fourth that will redefine how we think about intelligence itself.
"Best AI session I've EVER been to!!!!"

"You gave me the push and confidence I needed to get started using AI."
"Was thought-provoking, exciting, a bit overwhelming (in the best way)."
"A monumental effort. Without a doubt the best event I have attended in my 8 years with the Bank and possibly my 20+ years in IT."
