As a proud Gumbaynggirr man raised in the Nambucca Valley, I have a deep understanding of the challenges faced by young people – as I once was – and a need for a holistic approach to these challenges. To understand more about me, my past, and where my inspiration comes from, you can find my story through the Inspire U program’s digital series. My passion for youth lies within my culture, my community, and in my role as Community Connector with Becoming U, how I can be an advocate through strong relationships from my past and the potential relationships and connections to come. You will catch me on the weekend with my partner and son Otis at the beach, camping in the bush or playing football with the local Macksville Sea Eagles.s.
