Stars of The North 2025

Hey - my name is Ollie!

Hey - my name is Ollie!


I’ve been a marketer and a creative, I’ve been a PhD researcher and educator on all things AI — but in terms of being a “Star” on the North Shore of Sydney, what’s most special to me has been the time I spend coaching the incredible kids and community in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at my amazing network of gyms that kicked-off in Crows Nest.


I’m dancing for the Cancer Council because a year or two ago, cancer threw me a nasty curveball myself. It was one of the most significant times of my life, and I know I wouldn’t have made it through without my incredible support network, which includes the amazing work done by the Cancer Council. For my own cancer journey, and that of several people I know and love, this incredible organisation has helped to guide through some of the most challenging aspects of diagnosis, treatment, and recovery.


I'm still slowly recovering from the whirlwind of surgeries, chemotherapy, and all the trials and tribulations that have followed since. But I'm keen to give this dance battle a crack for a really great cause in an attempt to take the crown on the night.


Whatever support you’re willing to give to the cause means the world to me, and I am sure, every other person who has ever been impacted in a similar way.

Thank you to my Sponsors
