This weekend I will run a movie night as well as indoor soccer night for my community as part of the Maldahnalanga project.
I wish I’d never left Narrandera for so long – there is so much to do in my community.
I’d originally planned to work as a community nurse and diabetes educator.
The qualities I most value in my colleagues are reliability and dependability.
I’ll never forget the days I gave birth to my son and daughter.
If I had more time, I’d write a book about my life and the obstacles and challenges I have faced as an Aboriginal person.
I’m most scared of mice.
For my next holiday I’m going to Tasmania then Japan.
I can’t get enough sleep.
I’m really terrible at dieting.
Career wise, I’m most proud of the studies I have completed and the positions I have held making a difference to the lives of Aboriginal people.
My big hope for the drug and alcohol sector is to see the community take more responsibility for the drug and alcohol problem. Cohesiveness and a community spirit would result in a more positive outcome for the whole of the community.
The sector’s biggest challenge going forward is delivering education about the problem and getting the community to take greater responsibility as a whole.
