About Simone Eyles
Simone Eyles is the founder of Disinfluencer, an Australian social enterprise that helps brands represent disability accurately in their marketing. Disinfluencer supplies inclusive stock images, represents talent and creators with disability for paid campaign work, and runs disability inclusion training for brands and marketers through its Academy.
Before Disinfluencer, Eyles worked for decades as a graphic designer and in digital marketing. In 2025 the company published the Disinfluencer 100, a list of more than 100 people and businesses doing disability-led work, and in 2026 it ran its own campaign, "When will I be famous?", which calls on brands to cast disabled people as paid models, actors and influencers.
On Mumbition with Carrie Kwan & Lucy Kippist, she discussed building Disinfluencer, the mentors who helped her and how she uses LinkedIn to challenge stigma about disability.
