Meet Our Team
Leadership Group
Krystal Tritton
CEO
Hello, I'm Krystal and I wear two important hats at roundsquared - as a dedicated Member since 2015 and currently serving as the CEO of roundsquared.
My journey began as the intake officer and has led me through roles as a Member/Consultant and Director, ultimately bringing me to the privilege of leading as CEO.
One of the highlights of my week is working closely with the Lets Talk Speak Out group, a Member-led advocacy initiative. Witnessing the personal growth of individuals within this space is incredibly rewarding and one of the most fulfilling aspects of my role.
In my position as CEO, my vision is for all roundsquared Members to thrive and live their best lives on their own terms. I'm driven to identify gaps in Disability provision services, creating opportunities that empower our members to actively participate in their communities.
On a personal note, I'm a family person with two beautiful girls. Our downtime involves beach outings and hearty conversations around the dining table. Beyond my professional role, I'm passionate about making a positive impact by addressing community needs and enhancing the lives of roundsquared Members.
Paul Newton
COO
My name is Paul and I am the Chief Operating Officer of roundsquared.
​​
I work closely with Krystal to oversee the smooth operation of the business as well as work closely with the directors to grow the business around our members.
My background is retail/business management where I’ve held roles in several nationally recognised businesses – I’ve always put customers first.
At roundsquared I’m delighted to work with our members and put them first in all we do.
On a personal note, I am a father of four children.
Downtime is spent exploring the beautiful South Coast with them, while finding the best spots in the area to dine with my wife.
We moved down to the Eurobodalla in January 2021 from Wollongong and are glad we made the move.
Frances Minotte
Senior Consultant
Sydney NSW
I joined the wonderful team at roundsquared in 2019 as a consultant here in Sydney. I have previously worked in management and retail.
The last 10 years I have been a full time carer for my disabled daughter, who is the absolute light of my life. I have been hands on with my daughters rehabilitation and have learnt a lot about different disabilities and the everyday struggles that they bring. My daughter has been a member of roundsquared for three years and it has absolutely changed the everyday life of our whole family.
With the guidance of my daughter’s support coordinator/ consultant getting us back into a somewhat “normal” lifestyle, I now have the time to return to work and help other members achieve a full & wonderful lifestyle.
I look forward to working with you all!
Lawrence Brady
Senior Consultant
South Coast NSW
I head up the Nowra consultant team.
My previous experience has been in disability employment services (DES).
​
Throughout my DES role I assisted people with navigating Centrelink and gaining life-changing employment. Utilising motivation, collaboration and dedication, we were able to achieve positive outcomes for improved lives. Armed with this experience and within my role here at roundsquared, I’ll harness my passion, empathy and determination to gain the best possible outcome for our members. With a passion for lifelong learning, together we can contribute to the success of roundsquared members.
​
Living in one of the most beautiful places on earth, you’ll normally see me swimming at the beach or exploring the local area.
Alison Borrelli
Senior Consultant
North Coast NSW
For the last 5 years I have been working as an Independent Disability Support Worker and Advocator. Joining roundsquared as a consultant is an exciting time for me. Originally from London, with a background in graphics and management, I first settled in Sydney and then moved to the Northern Rivers 10 years ago, where I decided I wanted a career working within the community. After qualifying at TAFE in Community Services I have been advocating for people with disabilities to be heard and listened to with confidence.
roundsquared has given me the opportunity to continue following my passion in doing this. A former ASCTA Swim Coach for over 10 years, swimming has been a huge influencer in my life. It showed me through hard work, dedication and motivation brings rewards. Life presents us with so many choices that I believe everyone should be given the opportunity to do well.
Kristy Bruce
Senior Finance Officer
I was fortunate enough to join roundsquared in 2019. I work in the finance team at our Moruya office and head up Plan Management for roundsquared.
​
I oversee daily operations and monitor plan budgets, while working with Consultants and senior staff to ensure all our members are supported and living their best lives possible.
The NDIS is constantly growing and changing, and I do my best to keep up to date with all the changes and implications for our members.
​
On a personal note, I cherish creating memories and being a busy mum to my two beautiful kids. Spending quality time with family and friends, beach days and camping trips are at the top of the list!

I have always found myself working in roles that support people living with disabilities. My previous experience is Disability employment services and a teachers Aide.
I thoroughly enjoy my role at roundsquared, I love that I get to work one on one with many individuals.
​
I have two beautiful girls who keep me busy when I’m not at work. We spend a lot of our time at the beach and at our local parks.
Emma Chamberlain
Senior Consultant
Far South Coast NSW
I have been a part of the Bega consultant team since 2022. My previous experience has been as a DSW (Disability Support Worker) where I was lucky enough to support the SA Wheelchair Rugby Team at Nationals as well as getting to travel overseas for a month while supporting my member with Tetraplegia. I then went onto be a Team Leader for In-Home services where I supported 25 staff across 3 different areas. I thoroughly enjoy the work I do where I can be a part of supporting people to live the very best life they can.
I grew up in South Australia in the Barossa Valley and now am enjoying living on the beautiful South Coast. When I’m not working you will find me at the beach or fishing and camping in the Snowy Mountains.
Administration
Jennifer Cornes
Executive Assistant
I joined roundsquared in 2021 as the Administration Officer/Assistant to one of our Directors.
In my role I am able to be at the forefront of operations within the South Coast head office. I liaise with our members daily which I really enjoy.
Previously, I ran my own small business that supported people with disabilities and developed an interest in pursuing a career with disability services. Thankfully, one of my clients is a roundsquared Director, who is now graciously mentoring me. I am furthering my learning around the NDIS, and how to best support community members with disabilities.
Away from the office I have two energetic and fun-loving young children. We enjoy an active life with lots of activities throughout the year such as fun runs, snowboarding and camping trips.
Alana Ryder
Administration Officer
Hi, my name is Alana and I have been a part of the amazing team at roundsquared since September 2022 as an Administration and Finance assistant. I really enjoy my role assisting in both departments and feel privileged to be working with the Members at roundsquared.
I grew up in Eurobodalla and I have previously enjoyed roles in data entry/administration in the superannuation and insurance industries.
I travelled for many years overseas. I lived in Canada working as a ski lift operator, and I was also a supervisor at restaurant in New Zealand during the winter seasons. When I wasn’t working, I would be chasing the mountains on my snowboard with some amazing people I met from all over the world. I have also enjoyed visiting all the wonderful museums in New York City and seen the beautiful Geyser’s at Yellowstone National Park.
I absolutely love and adore my two beautiful girls! When I’m not in the office, we enjoy going to the park, swimming at the beach and going on adventurous weekends away.
Ronnie Debrodt
Activities Officer
I joined roundsquared in 2023 and this is an exciting chapter in my professional life as roundsquared is a space that resonates with my core values.
​
My professional journey started in hospitality but over the last ten years I branched out to Project management of a Sydney based webinar company and was the Duty Manager of a Wildlife Park for the last five years. I’ve always enjoyed what I do but my heart craved an environment that cherishes people over profit margins and I have found that with roundsquared.
Originally from the United States and having grown up in Sydney, I moved to the South Coast in 2004.
Over two decades, this coastal haven has become more than a location; it became the backdrop to my flourishing family. My husband and I have four beautiful children and have just recently welcomed a grand daughter, all of whom bring us immense joy. While my children are getting older nothing will stop me from going beyond the boundaries of possibility when it comes to my family and career.
Our Finance Team
Alex Johnson

Customer care has been at the heart of my varied working life in the UK, US and Australia. I have worked in local government, business administration, travel, retail and healthcare, where my focus has been on the individual and how best to serve their needs.
I have been part of the roundsquared Finance team since December 2016. I am responsible for accounts payable which sees me reviewing, processing and paying all invoices received on behalf of members. I also work with members, consultants and service providers to resolve any queries that might come up.

In my spare time I enjoy bushwalking, mountain biking and swimming at our beautiful local beaches.
Joel Mccubben
Administration Assistant - Finance
Hi, my name is Joel. I work in the finance team at roundsquared. Since graduating from Moruya High School at the end of 2017, I was successful in obtaining employment with Meals On Wheels, where I entered clients orders for the week and administrating their Facebook page, skills which translated well into my current role.
​
One of my favourite things to do on a weekend is hanging out with my dachshunds and I enjoy gaming. I look forward to building my career within roundsquared.
Consultants
Melissa Williamson
Consultant
Far South Coast NSW
After 8 years of work in the disability sector as a Manager of an Australian Disability Enterprise, moving into the area of NDIS support co-ordination feels like a natural progression for me personally and with my skill set.
I am drawn to this work because I genuinely enjoy fostering professional relationships that are authentic and inclusive whilst supporting people to live a fulfilling and engaged life. Being able to contribute in some small way to enhancing someone else’s life is personally very rewarding to me.
Away from work I am an avid gardener of cactus, succulents, natives and veggies, I love reading, I am step mum to three teenagers and, in partnership with a friend, I run a little wellness centre in Cobargo on the far south coast.
Kristy M
Consultant
South Coast NSW
I have been working for roundsquared as a consultant with the South Coast team since July 2022. I really enjoy what I’m doing with roundsquared and I am thankful the opportunity arose to support a positive career change. For the past 13 years, I was working within the Department of Human Services, where I was co-ordinating and tailoring assistance for customers facing multiple barriers.
I was born in Moruya however, spent some time living in Canberra and Cairns. I returned home in 2014 after starting a family of my own. We have now settled here in the Eurobodalla where I live with my husband and 3 children.
Two of my children have NDIS plans of their own and I believe it is valuable lived experience to better understand the barriers families face whilst navigating the world of NDIS and ensuring that adequate supports are in place.
Angela Tyler
Consultant
South Coast NSW
I started with roundsquared in Feb 2017 as a Support Worker, then Team Leader and now Consultant. I love working with our members and their families.
I am a dinky die South Coast local. I was born and went through school in Moruya. I travelled Australia in a Gypsy Caravan with my dog and boyfriend (who I later married). We picked fruit, worked on a Gold Mine in Far North QLD and I was the first woman to ever be employed at Bundaberg Sugar Packaging back in the 1990's when the equal opportunity laws were passed and companies were forced to employ 2% female, 2% ethnic, and 2% people with special needs. I was the 2% female in a Boys Club spanning over 100yrs! I might not be a person with a disability, but I have experienced the assumptions, prejudice and expectation of inadequacy that is projected onto the one who is considered the 'weakest link'.
I also enjoyed travelling to Africa and volunteering at 'The School of St Jude' in return for a Safari Tour ... Win, Win.
Life is good when you choose to live it, and we always have that choice.
Elise Townsend
Consultant
South Coast NSW
I joined roundsquared as a consultant in early 2023 and am based in the Shoalhaven region in Dharawal Country. You will often find me and my family on bushwalks, camping or by the beach; we love making new memories together as a family.
I am married to my wonderful husband, and we have two amazing young children, one of whom has Autism and his own NDIS plan, and the other with her own unique qualities. So I understand the difficulties and the joy of everyday life as a parent especially one with extra support needs. My children mean the absolute world to me and watching them thrive in life makes my heart full.
I am an active volunteer member of NSW RFS, my local church youth group, and the local Op Shop. My working background has been varied between working in real-estate, hospitality and running my own florist business. The one thing that all my volunteer work and previous paid positions have had in common is that I love helping people and supporting people of all walks of life.
I am excited about my future with roundsquared and have so far really enjoyed assisting our members to get the supports they want and deserve. I am excited to work alongside our members and watch them achieve their goals, both long-term and short term.
Karen Kent
Consultant
Eurobodalla NSW
I moved to the South Coast from Sydney in 2016 with my husband and daughter.
The only regret I have is not making the sea change sooner. I love everything about the region, the relaxed lifestyle, the friendliness of the people and the beautiful surroundings.
I am truly excited and grateful for this amazing opportunity to join the team at roundsquared and have really enjoyed getting to know members and their families.
I believe there is nothing more rewarding than putting a smile on someone else’s face and will make every effort to ensure I manage to do this while at roundsquared.
Shane O'Mara
Consultant
North Coast NSW
Hi I’m Shane. After a few years of being a Support Worker and Team Leader I took up a position with Roundsquared. You know when you are working in the right place when your own values align with your work colleagues and the organisation, that’s what I found at Roundsquared.
​
After a stint in the Army my career progressed towards business management and ownership. This journey taught me a lot about myself and I soon learnt that business was not about products but people. At this point I decided to pursue a career where I could use these skills to support people that really need support, where a tiny thing can make a big difference. That’s what I found at Roundsquared, a place that is always looking to make the lives of our members better.
​
I have a blended family where we have five kids all up, ranging from sixteen to thirty two. Four grandkids (when this was written anyway) and my Frenchy named Daisy. We love our lifestyle on the North Coast and spend most of our spare time enjoying our area.
Joshua Shoobridge
Consultant
Far South Coast NSW
For the past eight years, I've dedicated my efforts to the field of disability. As a Support Worker, my primary focus was guiding individuals through the transition from school to post-school life. Leveraging my extensive community connections, I facilitated smoother transitions and positioned community involvement as a pivotal step towards the success of those I supported.
In 2012, I relocated to the Bega Valley from Hobart, Tasmania, where I've successfully established a fulfilling life for myself and my two boys. Actively engaged in the community, I currently serve on the board of a local charity and contribute as a committee member to three other community groups. During the day, you'll often find me outdoors with my boys, exploring nature and capturing its beauty through photography. In my downtime at home, I immerse myself in my workshop, passionately pursuing my hobby of collecting, building, and painting tabletop wargaming miniatures.
Evelyn Hamilton-Ford
Consultant
Sydney NSW
I joined the roundsquared team in 2022 and come with a range of different experiences and knowledge.
I have lived overseas and had the privilege of volunteering my time to assist an NGO group to help with various disasters. I also was able to go into the local villages, teach English and spend time with the locals and learn their culture which was a beautiful experience.
I spend my free time with my husband, family, and close friends. I enjoy the beach, outdoors and travel.
I am excited to have this opportunity to work with such a fabulous organisation like roundsquared to be able to work with people living with disability, supporting our members in their independence, life goals and choices. I have always had a drive to support others to live a fulfilled life.
Jo Rodie
Chairperson / Consultant
South Coast NSW
I live in our state’s south coast with my little family consisting of myself, my daughter Suzanna, and one too many pets. Just how we like it! I originally come from New Zealand and grew up camping and bush walking in almost every school holidays. This turned into a life-long hobby, one that I do not indulge much these days.​After many busy years working in retail and managing a nanny agency in Sydney, moving to the coast was a great decision for me. It has been twelve years, and am still constantly in awe of the natural beauty.My life is kept pretty busy with performing mum duties, and my role with roundsquared. Happily, both things I love to do.​It was a clear choice to work in a field where I can be part of supporting people living with disabilities; it has become my passion over the last 10 years, while learning to navigate the system with my daughter.​When I am not at work my life revolves almost entirely around caring for Suzanna. We foster RSPCA animals short term while they find forever homes. It can make the house a bit chaotic at times, but lots of fun!
