With 20 years’ experience across health, social services, business, and the not-for-profit sector, Jodi leads Wheels of Wellness—a Cairns-based service delivering healthcare and social support for people experiencing homelessness and vulnerability. Jodi supports a dedicated team committed to improving health equity and champions collaboration with housing and homelessness services to create integrated, preventative pathways out of crisis.

Passionate about partnerships and embedding lived experience in program design and governance, Jodi’s leadership is defined by action, advocacy, and innovation. Through WOW, she positions health as an essential partner in ending homelessness—not an adjunct to it—while driving practical, community-led solutions that reflect the unique challenges and opportunities of regional Queensland. Her work ensures equity, dignity, and person-centred care for those who need it most.
