Jess Miller is well known to readers of The Fifth Estate - she’s been a brilliant and highly entertaining MC for several of our events now. Starting with our Urban Greening summits at the University of Technology Sydney in the past few years.

But of course Jess has a much wider audience than ours. At a very young age, she became a councillor and then deputy mayor of The City of Sydney and then became a prime initiator in a green or living infrastructure movement called Greener Spaces Better Places program where she worked with another bright spark, Ben Peacock of the Republic of Everyone. 

These days, Jess is working with another ignitor of great ideas, Ross Harding of Finding Infinity, who, quite like Jess, enjoys breaking down conventional barriers alongside conventional wisdom to change the world to another level of sustainability.
