Daniele Di Paolo

Daniele migrated from New Caledonia to Sydney to study for a Bachelor of Commerce (Economics) at the University of New South Wales. After graduating she worked in the tariffs and economics department of a large textile and clothing organisation, before moving to Canada for a year. The lure of our sun, sand and sea (and no more -50ºC winters!) saw her return to Sydney, where she joined the Reserve Bank of Australia and was employed in various departments until her retirement.

She has since volunteered in various roles for a number of not-for-profit organisations including Hills Community Aid, which provides social, financial and educational programs that assist the vulnerable. Daniele loves reading, travelling, cooking, the beach and generally spending time outdoors and staying active and engaged with her family and community, with gardening a long-term favourite pastime and a perfect fit to her lifestyle. She hopes to contribute to ECG by bridging the gap between the volunteers and the management committee.
