Vanessa Lang
My experience:
I have worked many years at not-for-profits, small charities, and bigger organisations that are NFP. My last role was in field of drug and alcohol, and all of my roles have been as an assistant accountant and/or in payroll. I am also trained as a Kinesiologist and worked two years in Tanzania at The School of St Jude.
What inspires me to do what I do:
People before profit. I prefer to see an outcome that supports people.
The most rewarding part of my role is...
Seeing our customers having access to the community and able to make their own choices.
A fun fact about me:
I enjoy dancing and have tried many styles such as bellydance, African dance, latin, and flamenco. I also love to travel – my previous workmates used to laugh as I would accidentally get married while overseas (and married for real once overseas!) and other times dressed up in the local culture.
