Summary

I am a proud Nunukul man who is connected with my culture from the Moreton Bay region. I have worked in many roles however the traits I learnt from the Army has stuck with me the most. I want to join back as soon as possible and have developed my skills such as mental toughness and self discipline during the mean time. I have matured a lot since discharging from the service and am motivated more than ever on re enlisting back into the Army. I am currently working two jobs as a security officer and as a cultural heritage monitor. This allows me to enjoy the significance of my indigenous culture and also work in a role similar to combat and security.
