About
My Story
I am a proud Wiradjuri man from Dubbo in central-western NSW.
My passion has always been to help support the wider community to break free from active addiction of alcohol other drugs and encourage those to reach their full potential.
My goal will always be to help Aboriginal people transform their lives through positive and sustainable change, support the wider community & encourage those to reach their full potential.
From completing high school with poor numeracy and literacy skills,
I’ve faced many battles, some of my own doing and through this I have always approached life head on & strived to become a better person and role model.
My passion for developing others is reflected in my personal goal to be a leader and stand up for positive change. Through my actions, I believe this is achievable. I am committed to continuing my mission to motivate other Indigenous Australians into empowering their lives as a means of creating positive experiences within our communities.
With my strong communication skills, witty storytelling, support network, self-determination, and ability to motivate and encourage others, I have transformed my own life and through power of example the lives of many other young Aboriginal people from disadvantaged educational and social backgrounds.
We must walk together to achieve this change.
