Wangga About Our Founder

What the people are saying
“Jolleen is a thorough professional and will certainly provide a meticulously prepared program for your organisation.”

BRAD SNELL

“Jolleen is making a difference. Not just for herself as a skilled professional able “to walk both sides of the street” but someone who has returned to her own community to help bring understanding and respect between us with our Western culture and her people with their ancient culture. I admire her tremendously. ”

JOHN CUNNINGHAM

“She has never wavered in her determination to use her talents and skills to build capacity in her own Aboriginal community as well as conducting a successful business. To me she is a poster woman for the way ahead for Aboriginal people and I am proud to be a friend.”
