About Moi: You’ve heard the saying “Behind every great woman (Julie), there is a greater man.” (Me, of course! Ha ha ha!) Even so, I would like to be known as the CEO and Production Manager of Greenpet. I am mainly referred to as the ‘Box Boy’ as I am also responsible for sending the orders out. Our loyal customers and wonderful staff make working at Greenpet a treat! I take a lot of pride and satisfaction in knowing that our Greenpet products have improved the health of thousands of pets around Australia and beyond.

Besides work, I like nothing more than listening to loud rock & blues music and playing walking football (soccer for the over 50’s).

Hometown: Wellington, New Zealand.

Current Town: Little Mountain, Sunshine Coast.

Pets: Barnaby is my little sidekick — he’s full of beans and loves coming along on adventures around the Sunshine Coast. I also have a halfmoon Betta and a mystery snail who keep me company at home.

Interests: Outside of work, I love getting outdoors for scenic walks and exploring new places with Barnaby. I’m also a big fan of dancing, the gym and Pilates. My love of animals led me to complete a Bachelor of Animal Science, majoring in Animal Welfare, in 2023 and I’ve developed a real passion for natural health and supporting animals through a more holistic approach to their wellbeing.
