LEADERSHIP

Vicky Mills

Co-Founder & CEO

Following an extensive international career in business strategy and management, Vicky has also spent the last six years applying her acumen and strategic planning expertise to the Solar Schools Energy Educational Program. Working in partnership with schools, Vicky informed, co-designed and implemented a holistic education platform that is aligned with Australia’s curriculum but, more importantly, works hand in hand with schools’ structures. She believes that challenges cannot be solved by thinking alone — action is a must! Vicky started Zero Positive to create a global movement of change through thinking + action. “If not you, then who?!” is her motto, which inspires individuals to make a big difference through a series of small, but significant, actions.

Rob Breuer

Chief Sustainability Officer

After reflecting on the changes he witnessed in the natural environment from a lifetime of adventuring, Rob has a newfound sense of urgency regarding climate change. After meeting Dave Aaskov from Radian, and a small group of other passionate people, he created the genesis of a program that he believed could effect the change required. Together with Dave and Remy, Zero Positive has become a reality — a program that’s able to solve the challenges that schools face in becoming climate neutral. Simply put, he believes this program can accelerate schools’ abilities to create tangible impacts and positive environmental outcomes — the change agents we need to start reversing the current future we face with climate change.

Dave Aaskov

Co-Founder

Dave has consulted and operated businesses providing process, industrialisation, assurance, and reliability engineering functions in the transportation, oil and gas, pharmaceuticals and FMCG sectors through Australia, Asia, UK and Kazakhstan. His current interest is the role circular economies play in energy equality, financial well-being, sustainable practices, and the decarbonisation of the electricity market in Australia. His drive for action echoes the sentiments of President Barack Obama when he said, “we are the first generation to feel the effects of climate change and the last generation who can do something about it.”

Remy Brassac

Co-Founder

Co-founder of the Rumbletown Group and business entrepreneur, Remy built his own agency, Gallery DePasquale, before Rumbletown — it was bought by the Clemenger Group in 2010. Remy has a sharp strategic focus with boundless energy and enthusiasm.
