Summary

Having spent my formative years in Albury, NSW, I relocated to Melbourne, Vic to pursue my undergraduate studies at Monash University. As a proud Ngunnawal man, I hold a profound connection to my Country and Culture. Presently, I serve as a co-owner and operator of Luna Hospitality, an event planning company that specializes in bar restructuring and crafting innovative cocktail menus. My aviation journey began at the age of 12, and by 16, I had obtained my Recreational Pilots License (RPL). I have a keen interest in sports, outdoor activities, and a continuous eagerness to acquire new skills.
