Anne Smith
General Manager - Continuous Improvement

Zoology & Management
In addition to environmental accounting, Anne has a special talent for describing the impact of the hard and shiny on the soft and furry, especially in freshwater. She balances a passion for the great outdoors and fitness, with cake. When she's not at her desk she's championing office push up challenges, pounding the pavement or baking themed birthday cakes for all her friends and their families. She's the threadwork to the Greenbase seams and has a very well-worn chair in her office.

Environmental Monitoring & Technology

A devoted fan of Sir David Attenborough, she draws inspiration from his explorations and narratives. Remember that compassionate figure rescuing reptiles on the roadside? That was probably our Amy. She has an aptitude for fauna handling, rescuing, and wrangling everything from the slick and slithery to the fluffy and feathered. As a self-professed foodie, she dreams about being a judge on MasterChef. Infusing our team with a mix of technical brilliance, a culinary palate, and a deep-rooted love for nature, Amy is a delight to work with.

He is also currently involved with the Environmental Accounting special interest section of the Environment Institute of Australia and New Zealand. He has been heard to say his job is to create opportunities. We say great, make sure they are the right ones.

Daniel Beeck
Senior Consultant - Environmental Accounting
-
Environmental Science & Biochemistry
Daniel is a harmonious blend of botanist, aquarist, and biochemist. With a foundation in Environmental Science and Biochemistry, he's as adept in the lab as he is with tending to his garden. If you can't find him analysing intricate data, he's likely rewinding Moto GP videos, daydreaming of unhurried beach days or perhaps squeezing in a game of Starcraft Broodwar. His expertise shines in the professional realm, but his multifaceted passions truly make Dan our resident renaissance man.

Chemical Engineering & Metallurgy
Emma is our very own dancing queen with an unexpected twist - a degree in Chemical Engineering! While she gracefully pirouettes in the world of dance, by day, she's extracting brilliance from what most would deem mundane. Emma’s spirit? Irrepressibly upbeat and perpetually positive. She’s won the flexible working crown, often dialling in from Australia’s hidden gems during her bush escapades. When she's not choreographing sustainability solutions, she's juggling dance routines, her vivacious kids, and the occasional moment of zen. Sleep? It’s on her to-do list right after the next tango!

Laura Orozco
Junior Analyst - Environmental Accounting
-
Environmental Engineering
A feline fan with an adventurer's soul, Laura effortlessly merges her Environmental Engineering expertise with her innate love for the outdoors.

Su Fong Yong
Consultant - Environmental Accounting
-
Chemical & Project Engineering
Su speaks Greenbase fluently along with English, Mandarin and Malay. She’s also currently working on her Korean language development through a commitment to watching k-drama. A background in chemical and project engineering has helped her hone her environmental accounting skills and she can declutter and organize data as efficiently and effectively as she does a home.

Susan Milne
Specialist - Environmental Accounting

Civil Engineering
Sue builds her reports using her much invoked KISS principle. Build them solid and as simple as possible. Sue applies the same principle to fill the penalty box when refereeing on the lacrosse field.
Technology & Development
Aaron Peel
Software Developer
-
Computer Science & Education
At the intersection of computer code and cinematic dreams, you'll find Aaron, crafting digital symphonies with a side of semicolons. With a Computer Science degree in his toolkit, he doesn't just talk to machines but has a penchant for dialogues—be it on the silver screen or immersive podcasts. While he once aspired to converse with the stars as an astronaut, for now, the realms of science fiction satisfy that yearning. Sure, he hasn’t reached space (yet), but with every line of code and movie binge, he's one step closer.
Andrew Vanweerden
Software Developer
-
Linguistics & Software Development
From the frosty terrains of Canada to our sunny shores, Andrew brings a unique Canadian cadence to our development ensemble. While he playfully contends that his Linguistics degree sharpens his coding syntax (we'll see about that), his knack for cryptic crosswords, albeit with some head-scratching — can't be overlooked. Every dawn demands a ceremonial black coffee, fuelling his day filled with linguistic adventures, from Japanese intricacies to Australian slang. Yet, for all his global endeavours, the hues of a Canadian Autumn resonate deepest.
Dylan Marks
Software Developer
-
Computer Science and MBA
Dylan is the vest-wearing visionary of our devs team. With dual powers of an MBA and a Computer Science degree, he’s been our coding connoisseur and architectural ace since day one. Beyond the codes and clouds, Dylan's passion lies in weaving deep strategic stories and charting uncharted territories (usually on giant whiteboards). If he's not mapping out our next big ENVAGO move, he's likely charting a walk for his four-legged sidekick. Dive into a profound conversation with him, and you'll see why he's been an integral pixel in our company's digital canvas since the start of this century!
Remy Kung
Front End Developer
-
Accounting, CPA, Information Technology
According to Remy, accounting, auditing and coding go hand in hand. Go figure, though, we agree. Remy brings a keen eye for detail and a rigorous analytical approach to her role, crafting intuitive and engaging user experiences with precision and creativity. Remy's ability to unravel complex problems, whether balancing financial sheets or debugging code, showcases her exceptional problem-solving skills - a trait she enjoys implementing outside of work with challenging Sudoku puzzles while sipping (yet another) bubble tea.
p.s. Remy's love for bubble tea is as strong as her code, making her our go-to expert for Perth's best bubble tea spots.

IoT and Quantum Computation
John is our very own version of Ian Fleming’s Q.
Msquared
Software Developer
-
Applied Science & Software Development
Msquared (yes, that is a name) works mainly on the bits you cannot see, the dark arts. He puts the 'ease' in Easel (our internal data-configuration software), and his work has been instrumental in allowing us to work with Partners on Envago. In his spare time, we think he reads and memorises dictionaries to dominate lunchtime Bananagrams.
Operational Support
Jonathan Surin
Office & Finance Administrator
-
Administration & Design
Jon makes sure the office functions so the rest of us can do our thing without having to worry about such mundane things as getting paid, what we sit on, what we write on etc. Always helpful, always well turned out a gentleman in the true sense of the word. Loves buying shoes.
Sheilah Ismail
Marketing Coordinator
-
Environmental Management, Communications & Media, Digital Marketing
Sheilah is as dynamic as her globe-trotting upbringing, which spans six countries and two continents. Being new to Western Australia (making Australia her continent number 3), she loves exploring untamed hiking trails and discovering Instaworthy camping spots. Hailing from Singapore, she'd rather chew your ear with Singlish* while sipping matcha than chow down some chilli crab at the Chomp Chomp Hawker Centre.
Professionally, she's taken a bold leap from Environmental Engineering to Marketing and Communications, driven by a passion for championing Sustainability Communication. With her eclectic background, knowledge of environmental principles, and forward-thinking approach, Sheilah brings fresh perspectives and communications skills, complementing our team's sustainability efforts.
*Singlish: a colloquial form of Singaporean English, a medley of English, Mandarin, Malay and Tamil.
