Interests
I have always had a passion for social engagement and interacting with others. I am an avid sports fan and have enjoyed playing
watching and talking all things Basketball
Footy
Cricket and more. I love the competitive nature of sport to always improve
however my true enjoyment comes from the social interaction and teamwork it takes to achieve a common goal.
Additionally
I have always found enjoyment in theatre and musicals. As a drama captain in high school and often being in the school productions
I found that again
working in a team to create something special with others
was so rewarding.
I have a big family and have always enjoyed spending time going on holidays down to the beach
playing board game afternoons or sitting around the fire chatting. Anytime I get to be social and be with others is always a great time.
