It’s personal for me.
Born in Zimbabwe, I was introduced to cultural differences early in life. I understand that it’s important to get to know people to appreciate what’s important to them. There’s not much more I love than meeting new people and getting to know about their lives and their culture.
I’ve lived in three states of Australia and one territory, on two Australian islands and holidayed in every state and territory. You might guess that I love travel and I love engaging with people from all walks of life. I have travelled extensively setting foot on all seven continents.
Due to various family circumstances I understand what life can be like living with disability. My parents lived with significant life changing disabilities including one with a traumatic brain injury and one as an amputee, and I have many friends within the Deaf and Deaf Blind Community of South Australia who I met while studying Auslan for many years.
I’m passionate about gender equity, access and inclusion throughout our community and can’t imagine saying ‘no’ to any couple regardless of how they identify, after all, love is love and who you love should be celebrated at every opportunity.
There’s not much better than celebrating your love with those you love the most.
If it’s personal for you then it’s personal for me.
