Meet Our Team

Christine founded Cornerstone HR in 2012 with the goal of educating and inspiring business owners to develop themselves and their people knowledge. She applies a common-sense approach to combining compliance and best practices in real workplace settings. Christine takes pride in understanding her clients’ goals and specific needs and helping to translate them into action.

Christine loves being outdoors, camping, kayaking on the river, or hiking trails in the Perth hills in her spare time, with her husband and their beloved patchwork dog Jonty always by her side.

Ronni joined the Cornerstone team with experience across all aspects of business administration from sales account management to logistics, and financial control to marketing. Ronni has a passion for effective communication, delivering exceptional customer service for our clients, and has a keen interest in business development, process improvement, and of course, people.

Ronni has a talent for writing and drawing, and spends rainy days indulging these hobbies. When the sun is shining you’ll see her at the beach, soaking up the rays or bush-bashing and exploring nature with her 2 boys.

Cass has joined the Cornerstone team from 6 years as Senior HR Advisor supporting several business units in the resources sector and has experience in IR across several industries with further diverse exposure to businesses throughout her career.

On weekends Cass likes to go out for as many meals as possible, and is an avid supporter of the Dockers and Wildcats so you’ll see her in team colours at the games! When not cheering on her teams, dining out or catching a live gig, Cass is usually cruising in a 1972 combi van with her husband and 2 french bulldogs.

Alpena moved to Perth in 2008 with her husband following a number of years backpacking. Her passion for travel continues to lead her on adventures across the vast expanse of WA, with kids and the dog in tow.  Cricket is her language, when she is not supporting her son at club level you can find her at the WACA or secretly tuned in to a test match!
