Our Board
Our board brings together experience in community, wellbeing and governance, united by a shared commitment to early intervention and public benefit.
Founder & Director
Founder Keenan Paewai has experienced both connection and adversity throughout his life. Growing up navigating identity, change, belonging, and personal challenges, he developed a deep understanding of how important community, guidance, and support can be — especially during difficult seasons of life.
“Pathways exists to make sure no one has to walk through the hardest seasons of life alone.”
Director, Secretary & Public Officer
Gemma is the founder of Bookkeeping Online AU, a previous Lifeline crisis support volunteer, yoga teacher, mentor and business coach, with a passion for supporting individuals and communities through both practical guidance and genuine human connection.
“Meaningful change begins before crisis point — through connection, conversation and community.”
Director
Jonathon King experienced significant change early in life after moving to Australia, where he developed a firsthand understanding of the importance of guidance, resilience, community connection and positive pathways during formative years.
“Strong support systems and genuine connection can change the direction of a person's life before crisis ever begins.”
