Our Board

kellie woodger

President/Chair

Kellie Woodger is no stranger to horse-ability and its benefits, and certainly has the understanding and capability to conceptualise and meet equine centric objectives.

Her knowledge and practice encompass a decade of veterinary nursing, fifteen years as a regulator in various departments of agriculture, a small business owner-operator of a horsemanship riding lesson and pony party company and many decades running a horse stud. She currently owns a small farm enterprise company near Captains Flat whilst balancing her current position as a change management consultant. 

Having graduated in 2021 with a Bachelor of Equine Science, Kellie spent a month in the field at Pegasus during university placement. Having observed the tremendous therapeutic gains of children and adults who participated in Pegasus classes, she felt compelled to offer her skillset in any way she could; hence now holding a position on the Board.

Kellie hopes to bring all her skills sets together, to help drive Pegasus into the future, with a focus on herd management, horse welfare and growth. 

Kevin BHADRA

Vice Chair

Kevins career path was originally inspired by observing his father’s passion and purpose for his own business. This led him to choosing to study accounting, taxation, and business commerce at University, before completing his master’s in management, majoring in marketing.

Kevin launched his corporate career path in Australia, having moved here with his wife from India, well over a decade ago. After holding executive and management consulting roles within hundreds of businesses, he was acutely aware that the way clients and marketing agencies worked was something he was proficient and capable of improving upon, hence launched his own business to ensure clients could obtain proper visibility and outstanding return on their marketing investment.

Kevin continues to be instrumental in developing key relationships with clients and oversees the creation of a wide array of media and advertising projects that help increase market share in his clients’ respective industries.

With his local and interstate network, coupled with his diversity in all things marketing, promotion and communications, Kevin brings to Pegasus the opportunity to promote their ‘magic’ far and wide.

George Skillin

Treasurer

George is a Chartered Accountant, member of Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand, and Graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors.

Residing in the Canberra region for the last 20 years, he is seeking to give back to the community and region he calls home. George has previously volunteered for the Heart Foundation and supports local community sporting organisations including the Canberra Gunners basketball club through Chartertech.

George is the co-founder and director of Chartertech. Headquartered in Canberra, Chartertech delivers tailored and scalable end-to-end business solutions in the space where finance meets technology primarily for the Australian Government. Under his joint leadership, the company has grown to over 100 staff in its first five years, operates from several locations around Australia, and has acquired multiple boutique consulting firms along the way.

He has extensive enterprise level accounting and financial advisory experience from numerous roles in consultancies and government organisations including senior leadership roles in the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, Services Australia, and Medicare.

George joined the Pegasus Board in January 2022 and brings a vast corporate leadership skillset, including accounting and financial management, governance, analysis, and risk management. When it comes to horses, he’s probably safest on the ground feeding and leading a horse, rather than riding it, which suit us just fine!
