Ori Shepherd

Office Coordinator

Orianne joined Regional Development Australia Tropical North in 2026 as Office Coordinator, providing administrative and operational support across the organisation.

Her role includes coordinating day-to-day office operations, supporting governance processes, assisting with communications, and helping ensure the organisation runs efficiently behind the scenes.

Originally from Belgium, Ori now proudly calls Far North Queensland home. She enjoys being part of an organisation that supports the sustainable growth and prosperity of the region and values the opportunity to contribute to initiatives that benefit local communities.

Outside of work, Ori enjoys spending time with her husband and two young children, exploring Far North Queensland and discovering new places together.

The Daintree Rainforest is her favourite place to visit and continues to inspire her appreciation for the unique natural beauty of the region.
