For the past 12 years I have been a full time mum to my two wonderful children while studying Graduate Diploma of Education, mostly completed, and a Graduate Diploma of Law, which qualified me as a solicitor. Secretly I just love studying and opening my mind to new things, but now I need to get out and work in the community. I want to help others to discover new things and abilities that they doubted they could achieve. When I completed my Bachelor of Arts with Honours at James Cook University I received all the academic awards available in my third and fourth year. I have recently volunteered at legal centres, Brisbane environmental centres and The Gap State High School where I helped lead grade eight mountain biking as a sport.
