"I’ve been a resident of the Shoalhaven for 24 years. I arrived as a single party girl, became a single mother on Centrelink, and am now a mother of adult children. I volunteer with several local organisations, including helping with bushfire recovery and assisting the homelessness in our community.

I have a passion for our youth and for our environment. I want to ensure young people in the Shoalhaven have access to mental and physical health services, affordable housing, employment opportunities, and most importantly, adequate schooling. I also want to see responsible bushfire management and regeneration of our flora and fauna to preserve our environment for generations to come.

Through my professional life, I have taught yoga, breathing, meditation, fitness, circus and mental health workshops. I was also previously employed by TAFE NSW in their At Risk Youth Program.

My top priorities for a better future Shoalhaven are affordable housing, mental health services, youth issues, employment, education and training funding and upgrading our sports grounds, parks and outdoor areas for all.
