Ms Boyle said Pitch2Grow represented a great opportunity to get out of her comfort zone, and help showcase the local business opportunities that abound in Moree.
"Public Speaking is something I need to get better at, and this will be a great personal challenge," she said.
"It will also help me refine what my business is. It's been so exciting, and rewarding, opening a new business in town."
