Corinne’s journey with honeybees commenced as founder of The Bee Lady Apiaries in 2008. She quickly realised that her passion was Queen Breeding and since 2013 her goal has been to improve Australia’s Golden Italian honey bees so all Australian Beekeepers can enjoy the benefits of working with productive, healthy and gentle natured bees. Corinne is proficient in instrumental insemination and brings to the team practical skills and specialist knowledge acquired during the past six years developing and running a queen breeding programme.

Corinne is currently the vice president of the Australian Queen Bee Breeders Association and has a diverse background including qualifications in Accountancy, Art, Beekeeping and Training.
