Natasha is the head of operations and part of the executive team that plays a critical role in driving the growth and success of Lawpath - Australia's number one online legal platform that has helped over 300,000 small businesses across Australia. 

As a strong female leader, Natasha gets to champion the voice of women whilst also helping people fulfil their dreams of starting their businesses, something she is very passionate about after working in a startup that assisted both migrants and refugees in starting their businesses.

When Natasha first started at Lawpath, the team was very small but growing rapidly. Armed with a commercial law degree, she was employee number 7 and saw that the challenges and opportunities ahead of her were huge. Her initial role was in sales and customer support, setting processes, and building the foundations of the product, which has now evolved to focus more on operations and strategy development, and today she is the Chief of Staff at Lawpath.

As a strong advocate for diversity and inclusion, it was due to her efforts that the company rolled out an inclusive parental leave policy that gave all parents the flexibility to adjust to their new family life. Today, with the platform's explosive growth, her leadership is constantly focused on building trust, loyalty, transparency, and results-oriented objectives in the team.

Natasha has been awarded as a finalist in the Lawyer's Weekly Women for Legal Operations Professional of The Year and is often featured in the media. She is also a speaker for Salesforce Live - The Small Business Show.
