Raquel Todd
Pronoun
Managing Director
Blak Line Industries
I am a proud Aboriginal woman from the Banjima and Kariyarra language groups in Western Australia's Pilbara Region, serving as managing director of Blak Line Industries and leading Green Line Distributors and Four Hills Services. As a director on the First Nations X board, I bridge ancient wisdom with modern business, embedding cultural integrity and sustainable development into every venture I lead. My work is driven by a commitment to economic empowerment for Indigenous communities, cultural preservation, and creating meaningful social impact. Drawing strength from my heritage and ancestral teachings, I strive to harmonize tradition with progress, using business as a platform for community growth and inspiring others to find power in their cultural roots while building a future where both tradition and innovation thrive together.
