Dominic is a research student and sessional academic at the QUT business school, currently exploring the importation of wines and ciders, and how small business owners leverage their networks and language skills to remain competitive in niche markets. He is also an active member in the QUT College of Excellence, and is enthusiastic about education, leadership, anything Evernote related, and the art of the traditional wet shave.

At the age of 12, Dominic relocated to Switzerland and developed a passion for international affairs and learning about other cultures. Following his return, he studied International Business and French at QUT. In his spare time, he enjoys reading the McKinsey Quarterly, donating at the Red Cross Blood Service, and connecting with other bright minds.

Presenting at TEDxQUT Dominic shares his idea on how to get more people donating plasma.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
