She holds a Bachelor of Commerce (First Class Honours) from the University of Western Australia and an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University.

Mel works with Founders and Leaders to drive growth for companies and the people in them.

Mel is also the creator of 52 Conversations – a card game to create conversations that matter – and that’s what our conversation focused on today.
