Q: What first inspired you to join our club?
A: I used to go to the little Rotary market on the Emerald Primary School oval. I really liked the community feel of it and I liked talking to the Rotarians while I was there. One day I decided to have a look at the rotary meeting and the rest is history.
Q: What is a personal Rotary highlight?
A: Contributing to everything we do and being valued. Feeling a part of the movement by being supportive and helpful.
Q: What is something you have been fined for doing/saying?
A: I don’t get fined too often because I don’t do too many stupid things (or at least I don’t get caught!). Challenge accepted Chris, challenge accepted!
Q: What Rotary project (current or new) would you most like to be involved in in the future?
A: I enjoy helping out at the St Luke’s program and at breakfast club. Just supporting the community with what they need is what floats my boat.
Q: What is the best thing about being a member of this club?
A: The people.
Q: What is a life philosophy or mantra that you live by?
A: Treat people as you would like to be treated. I don’t care who you are, be nice and I’ll be nice!
Q: If you could have any superpower, what would you choose and why?
A: The power to make people kind to each other.
Q: What was your very first job?
A: I was a junior in a solicitor’s office for a month in the school holidays. It was not very inspiring. There were about 30 young women in a typing pool, and part of my job was to ring a bell to signal morning tea and then ring it again 15 minutes later to signal the return to work. I think ringing bells for adults is downright insulting. I didn’t go back there.
Q: Who is your dream dinner date?
A: John Stevens (without his girlfriend!)
Q: When you are not busy completing Rotary tasks, what do you like to do in your spare time?
A: My family are my most important thing so spending time with them. Also, music and gardening.
Q: What is the biggest lesson life has taught you?
A: Don’t put up with too much shit!
