Deb is the owner and Managing Director of Aurenda. Her credentials in worker injury risk management are impressive, with over 15 years’ experience in rehabilitation, injury management and workers’ compensation. Her professional background as a physiotherapist gives her a bio-medical perspective on injury risk management issues and how they impact on business. Deb has held previous senior positions with a rehabilitation provider, a major workers’ compensation insurance broker and a State government organisation, so she has the ability to approach issues from all viewpoints.
Before establishing Aurenda in 2002, Deb was a co-founder and partner of MYR Consulting Pty Ltd, founded in September 2000 to provide a portfolio of risk management services. Prior to the formation of MYR, Deb was the Director of Worksite Services, a division of Jardine Lloyd.
Deb has three sons and is slave to two dogs. She loves cycling, camping, and trips to any area of Australia where there is beautiful scenery and very few people. Fitness pursuits include the Red Sky Ride and chasing around tidying up after two dogs and three sons!
