Facilitators & Experts
CEO & Co-Founder
Katrina is CEO and Co-Founder of Sydney-based fashion technology company, LükBook, which is on a mission to revolution fashion for the 66% of Australian women who wear a size 14 or above.
Since launching in the Australian market in early 2022, LükBook has demonstrated rapid growth, and has to date reached around 3 million women, experienced ~60% MoM growth in sales, and has been featured in a range of national media, including Mamamia, Studio 10, and the Sydney Morning Herald.
Creating and running LükBook represents a true career pivot for Katrina, a former public and foreign policy professional who led the development and execution of policy solutions across four continents, and was a nuclear policy specialist at ANSTO for several years.
In addition, Katrina is an experienced Non-Executive Director, having served on numerous non-profit boards, including for the United Nations Association of Australia, Water Aid, Women in Nuclear, and the University of Sydney Business School Alumni Network.
Katrina holds an MBA from the University of Sydney Business School, and a Bachelor of Psychology (Hons) and Master of International Relations from Griffith University. She is also a graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors and holds professional accreditations in leadership, communications, and media relations.
