Our Team

Nancy is the Director of Ainslie+Gorman and CEO of Arts Capital. Nancy has had a rich and varied career which has taken her across continents and industries, culminating in her area of passion, the arts. Nancy has worked in executive roles at the National Film and Sound Archive and the Australian National Maritime Museum, securing federal investment and leading strategic reform. Nancy is an energetic, collaborative leader and advocate for the sector. She is all about strong teams, bold ideas and making Canberra just a little bit more fun.

Lachlan honed his sharp eye and sharper wit at ANU, with a BA in english literature and art history, plus Honours exploring creative writing and remix culture. Now COO at Ainslie+Gorman, he blends calm leadership, compliance know-how and literary flair to steer heritage projects like our centenary renovation. Also: collector of ties, master punner, problem-solver, and occasional culinary risk-taker.

Pedro, our CFO, blends Brazilian-Italian flair with 8+ years wrangling numbers at Eneva S.A. (AUD 29.9B*) and Aliansce (AUD 4.1B*). A finance wizard with a knack for clarity and strategy, he’s as sharp with spreadsheets as he is with a tennis serve. Calm, warm, and always caffeinated, Pedro’s financial acumen turns fiscal chaos into calm seas. (*Market cap as at 6 Dec 2023.)

Karl brings 35+ years wrangling venues, logistics, and security across sectors—from Floriade and Cirque du Soleil to UniLodge and the AIS. He’s led WHS-compliant ops for everyone from Lady Gaga to The Wiggles, and once ran a security firm with clients like the Australian War Memorial. Oh, and he’s a certified pastry chef.

Alison brings equal parts creative spark and clipboard precision to Ainslie+Gorman. With a knack for wrangling events and building community, she’s helped connect artists and audiences through gigs like Etsy Made Local Canberra. A champion of Canberra’s creative scene, she’s all about good vibes, great logistics and making the magic happen.

Andreo is a marketing wizard with a pop-culture soul—tripling Google traffic for the Harmonie German Club, ranking in Shopify’s global top 19%, and sealing deals with brands like Victoria’s Secret, Samsung and Johnny Walker. He’s photographed Vogue supermodel Coco Rocha, Miss Universe Catriona Gray, and worked with icons like Lea Salonga* and the Bee Gees. Equal parts chess nerd and brand whisperer, he brings global perspective to Ainslie+Gorman. (*Tony Award-winner + Disney legend.)
