BILLY JAMES DERKSEN
Jimboomba
Summary
I am 31 years old, I am married with 3 kids, I enjoy spending time with my kids and taking them to the parks. I am a big outdoor person and love being outdoors. I was also a volunteer and full time firefighter for my area's fire service in NSW, and a recipient of the National Fire service Medal. I am easy to approach and not afraid to have a conversation with anyone who wishes to do the same. I like to learn new things every day and know that every day is a learning curve.
