Episode 7: Moss Environmental with Shonelle Gleeson-Willey

Shonelle Gleeson-Willey is the founder and CEO of Moss Environmental, an environmental consultancy based in Tamworth, NSW. She is also the President of the International Erosion Control Association and hosts her own STEM podcast ‘Beyond the Green Line’. In this interview we chat about how she made the decision to move from being an employee of other companies, to working freelance as an environmental consultant, to then eventually starting her own consultancy. Shonelle believes strongly in empowering and rewarding regional STEM experts to attract and retain skills in regions. This means more than just offering a tree change and regional lifestyle, it also means offering career growth prospects and the promise of a rewarding future. We also chat about the importance of sharing knowledge and stories as a part of being a STEM professional.
