A proud advocate for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth, Eylania is passionate about creating culturaly safe, inclusive pathways that empower young people to pursue meaningful futures – especially in STEM.

Lonnie's role for Deadly Coders
In her role at Deadly Coders, Lonnie is responsible for leading and nurturing relationships with our valued partners, schools and community stakeholders across the country. Her work is instrumental in expanding access to our coding, robotics and cybersecurity programs for First Nations students, and in building new partnerships that open doors to opportunity and innovation.

Eylania’s unique combination of strategic thinking, on-the-ground experience, and community-first
approach aligns beautifully with Deadly Coders’ mission to close the digital divide and create long-
term impact for Indigenous youth.
We’re thrilled to have her on board and can’t wait to see the positive impact she will make.
