WHY DID YOU BECOME A TEACHER?
I come from a family of teachers. Initially I didn't study to be a teacher but realised the best part of my previous work was presenting and teaching others, so I went back and completed my Dip Ed.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE COLLEGE EVENT? WHY?
I really enjoy the graduation of our Year 12 class each year - it is great to celebrate the completion of a journey with both the students, their families and the staff of the College. We welcome students in when they join the College and have the privilege of watching them develop into valued filled, fine young men and women.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE QUOTE?
"Everybody has something good inside them. Some hide it, some neglect it, but it is there." Mother Teresa
HOW DO YOU LIKE TO SPEND YOUR TIME OUTSIDE OF WORK?
I love going to different places in the world and discovering how people do things differently.
