After working in several clinical settings as an RN in Australia from 2007 to 2014 while simultaneously pursuing her career in the arts, Pauline embarked on a journey as a volunteer to one of the most remote parts of Mozambique, Africa for 4 months. In her role as water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) Field Director and eventually Co-Director of the organization, Pauline created and implemented Training Programs with a focus on preventative Health care for remote communities. She worked especially closely with the women and girls, helping them understand menstrual health and maternal health care and nutrition.
After working in remote communities in Mozambique for 4 years, in 2019, Pauline teamed up with Saran Kaba Jones, the founder of FACE Africa, and now holds position of Executive Director at FACE Africa. Pauline oversees all international operations and field programs in West Africa. She spends several months every year living with the local team, working to build the capacity and self-sufficiency of rural communities to sustain their own water and health projects.
Pauline was selected as a Mentor for the Deloitte Women In Africa Program where she mentored an entrepreneur from Angola who created a tele-medicine business. More recently Pauline was selected as a Mentor for the Agenda For Change Women in WASH initiative, and a Mentor & Mentee for the Rural Water Supply Network (RWSN) Career Progression Program. She mentored two talented women (one from Ghana and one from Sweden).
