About Noah

Noah is a Wiradjuri man raised on Gumbaynggirr country in northern NSW. He is the UNSW Law Valedictorian for 2022 and a former Australian Indigenous Law Student of the Year. He is currently advisor to Senator Patrick Dodson, Special Envoy for Reconciliation and Implementation of the Uluru Statement and Chair of the Joint Standing Committee on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Affairs. Noah has diverse and varied experience across law, management consulting and philanthropy, having previously worked at the Public Interest Advocacy Centre, McKinsey & Company and the Paul Ramsay Foundation. “There is much work to be done in advancing the fundamental rights and recognition of Indigenous peoples here in Australia. This remains the unfinished business that generations of Indigenous leaders have sought to resolve. I hope that I will be able to meaningfully progress this agenda within my lifetime.”
