A proud Worimi woman, Genevieve has more than twenty years experience creating dynamic content for exhibitions, online, film and television, and multimedia. She was the Lead Curator on the internationally-award winning First Peoples, a permanent exhibition at the Melbourne Museum, and has developed a range of projects with community engagement at their heart, including the one-hour documentary for SBS Television, Lani's Story (2013), as well as a place-based augmented reality experience celebrating Sydney Aboriginal women, Barangaroo Ngangamay (2016). Her work has garnered awards and recognition, including Best Documentary from the United Nations of Australia Media Peace Awards. Genevieve holds a prominent leadership role in the arts and cultural sector, contributing to the development of key organisations while attaching importance to mentoring emerging First Peoples creatives. Emerging from her career at Koorie Heritage Trust Inc., where she established Oral History and Stolen Generations programs, Genevieve is today regarded as a leading practitioner of community engagement and decolonising practice in Australia - Genevieve not only weaves best practice, grounded in cultural protocols, into content creation, she also passionately advocates and educates these skills and approaches across Australian university, institutional and community spaces as a public intellectual, speaker, and teacher.
