Episode 14: Grady Toomath
Grady is a Minang Noongar man born in Perth. He is an IT Consultant at Winyama with a drone specialisation. Prior to joining Winyama, Grady completed an Advanced Diploma in Engineering and Electrical Design and worked for 10 years as an Instrument and Electrical Designer with resource companies.
In his spare time Grady is a regular attendee of the public speaking group Toastmasters and is an avid baker with breads and cakes aplenty. His talents stretch even further, as a self-taught bassist, mechanic and chess player.
Giving back, creating positive change in the community and supporting others are some of Grady’s key motivators for pursuing a career at Winyama. He has ambitions to help widen the skills and qualifications of the Indigenous population and culturally empower others in the future.
