A little while ago, HerCanberra named me as one of the 17 Canberra Women to Watch in 2017…
This list includes women who are creating real change — from community advocates to medical researchers and social innovators — so feeling a little out of place was an understatement!
But the other day one of you said something simple but powerful — “keep on inspiring” — and it made me realise that what I do is special in its own way. I get to bring joy, creativity and a bit of escapism into people’s homes… and we could all use more of that!

Here’s what they wrote:
“It’s just shy of three years since Gina decided to follow her heart — looking beyond the Australian Public Service and into the world of interior design.
Building a new home and giving birth to Patrick as she nurtured her Style Curator blog, Gina quickly engaged a social media following with her minimalist — but always inviting — aesthetic. Style Curator has now cemented itself as an interiors inspo site nationally. Gina has amassed over 25,000 social media followers and the blog receives 50,000 clicks a month.
She’s just been selected as Foxtel’s Lifestyle Home Influencer and will now deliver content to an audience of more than two million.”
Congratulations to all the incredible women on the list, including fellow influencer Tanya Hennessy; Movers Alison Plevey, Ellie Brush and Bianca Elmir; Researchers Tara Boulding and Hayley Teasdale; Thinkers Lucy Poole and Jessa Rogers; Designers Charne Estermuizen and Chelsea Lemon; Creatives Lexi Bannister and Ute Pikler; LegislatorsElizabeth Lee and Tara Cheyne; and Change Makers Caitlin Figueiredo and Hanah Wandel.
HerCanberra is a leading destination in Canberra for all things food, lifestyle and wellbeing.
