Possum Portraits

Larissa is the founder and director of Australian grief support charity Possum Portraits. The charity works to support parents who have lost a baby to miscarriage, stillbirth or neonatal death. After a successful career in consulting and sales, Larissa found a new home in the non-profit sector, finding it more rewarding to pursue purposeful goals than sales targets. That is why she founded the charity she now runs with passion, dedication and drive.

Larissa has a Master's degree in Illustration and has worked and travelled widely. She has either worked, lived or volunteered in seven countries spanning four continents and is fluently trilingual. Larissa moved to Melbourne in 2020 with her Aussie husband and their baby daughter.
