About

I am highly driven professional with a diverse background ranging from Leadership and Management to Training and Education, and now OSH and Compliance. While these are all interrelated my passion lays with leadership and safety. I quickly developed these skills from the start of my working career and over the next 10 years in the Australian Army.
