Hey RACI members! I'm Franca, your go-to person for all things careers and mentoring here at RACI. I'm thrilled to be working on an exciting new careers and mentoring program set to launch in 2025-stay tuned for more details!

When I'm not at work, you can find me doting on my two adorable bulldogs - a lovely 2-year-old American Bulldog and a wise 12-year-old Aussie Bulldog. 🐶🐾 I'm also a proud basketball mum, cheering on my kids from the sidelines, and I love spending quality time with my family and friends.

Looking forward to connecting with you all and making 2025 our best year yet!

Hey Everyone!

I'm Sian, and I work alongside Robyn and Faith in the Events and Awards Team.

This July marks my one-year anniversary with RACI, and I love the variety of tasks my role offers.

Working with the National Office team is fantastic, and getting to know so many of our members and volunteers has been amazing.

I was born and mostly raised in Adelaide, though I spent 3 years in Perth as a child. I've been married for 10 years, and I have a 3-year-old son and a Westie.

I enjoy AM radio, cream in my coffee, and TV shows like Taskmaster and 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown. English humor is my favorite.

On that note, I am a first-generation Australian with a Scottish and English background.

Thanks for a great (almost) first year here.

Cheers to RACI and everyone who is involved!

SKP :)

Hi everyone,

I graduated UNSW about 1970 with Chem Hons and worked in several organisations while going through P/T.  I joined NSW DPI as an analyst and after a few years,  left the lab and took an interest in environmental chemistry that has stayed with me ever since: I'm currently working on P and Cd behaviour in soils.

Paul.
