This year, through brightmoon.au we made a total of $1.7M in grants to First Nations social entrepreneurs across Nth Australia! We've been able to support a real variety of groups - from healing circles to mentorship, activism to bush bands and remote schools 🖤💛❤️

Today freeflo.ai went live as a hub for reusable generative AI style prompts to create better images. It's been a super fun project to work on - both in product design, but also I've been making style prompts myself. There's a bit of an art to them! 😅

freeflo.ai is a side project I've been working on, sort of an Unsplash-for-AI images. Still pre-official-launch but its coming together well, and we're accepting new creators! 🙌

Up here in the NT we often collaborate with the crew from houseofdarwin.com With the referendum coming up, they’ve made some awesome YES merch and materials, and you can grab their Tee here: houseofdarwin.com/products/m… - proceeds go into campaigns to support the YES vote.

One of my recent side projects has been producing documentary-style featurettes around Australia. I am quite proud of this one that just published: youtube.com/watch?v=NvFrwfqN… - about a man who was the victim of a home invasion. His response was nothing short of remarkable!

One more to share: brightmoon.au ✨ It's the charitable trust Cy and I work thru that distributes funds to First Nations social entrepreneurs like Noni (pictured) founder of mayalabol.com a social enterprise focused on wellbeing for women and youth in Darwin!

It's been a while since I posted to Twitter. Thought I'd share the new website of a startup we backed last year called refilled.com.au - they make smart drink dispensers to reduce/eliminate single use plastics on the go!

Cyan and I are excited to be early stage backers of @bloom_impact - a new Climate Impact Investment app led by founders Camille and Bertrand. Camille has a bold vision for enabling anyone and everyone to fund (and benefit!) from the shift to a more climate focused society. 🙂🌏💚

Now that I've wrapped up at Envato, I'm working with Cyan at heytiger.com.au where we just launched the Christmas 2020 range. It's pretty exciting working on a product you can actually *eat* 🍫🍫🍫. We only ship to AU/US/NZ at the moment, but expanding soon I hope 🌎
