I am a recognised Kabi Kabi Traditional Owner and a proud descendant of the Wakka Wakka, Nughi of Moorgumpin and Bindal tribe's in Queensland. I have completed a Masters of Business Administration at the University of Queensland, Masters of Teaching following a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Criminology and Sociology at the University of Melbourne. I have held positions as the Indigenous programs Coordinator and Humanities teacher at Trinity Grammar School before starting a Business Analyst Internship then accepting a Junior Associate role at McKinsey and Co.

I am passionate about education and combining my personal cultural standpoint in a way that brings both the First Nation community together with the rest of Australia. I have written and delivered Cultural Insight Education Workshops for over 10 years in the private, public, institutional and not for profit sectors to all demographic groups. This has led me writing a curriculum to a year level at Trinity Grammar School that sees all students participate to gain a greater understanding of the political, historical, educational and cultural aspects within the First Nation Australian context.

I also have experience with mentoring programs aimed to support First Nation and disengaged youth attending secondary school which stems from my involvement in facilitation at The Reach Foundation, AIME, NASCA, Raise the Bar Academy and Queen's College.

I have a long sporting history that continues today. I have spent my junior years in the elite talent AFL pathways playing TAC Cup, representing Vic Metro at u/16's and u/18s as well as captaining the Australian Indigenous u/16s, Flying Boomerangs on our 2008 South African Tour. I was also a part of the elite talent cricket pathways representing local competitions, Hatch, Victoria and The Australian Aboriginal XI as a 16 year old. This led to receiving a full scholarship to attend Melbourne Grammar School and was part of the 2008 APS Premiership side for 1st XI and XVII. I chose to pursue a career in football and played VFL football for Port Melbourne and Coburg, NTFL for Darwin Buffaloes and played Premier A VAFA and represented the Big V on the 2017 Ireland tour. I unfortunately have had some bad luck whilst on the field and have required seven knee operations (3xACL Reconstructions, 2x Meniscus tears, 2x clean outs), dislocated both shoulders twice, fractures in lower back, foot, hands, fingers and shins and have also had a heart operation. During this time I also attended the AIS for Boxing. In 2020, I shifted towards endurance sports and podiumed twice in the 2xu Triathlon series before completing the Geelong 70.3 Half Ironman. I have since returned to football and will be playing football in country Victoria in 2023 getting the last few seasons out of my body before shifting full time to Triathlon and Ironmans.
