Tell us a fun fact about yourself!
I love going on ghost tours.
What do you love about the work you do with the Casey Cardinia Libraries?
Every day is different. I get to talk to new people all the time. I could go from connecting people to free resources within the library, showing someone how to scan a document, introducing a new family to our children’s programs or booking in a yoga class in the library.
What would your last meal be?
That’s a tough one. If it was favourite take away it would be a charcoal chicken and chips with gravy, or home cooked it would have to be my mum’s roast lamb.
What is your most memorable moment?
The moment I became a mum when my son was born.
What event, past or present, would you like to witness?
12th March 1921, watching Edith Cowan be elected as the first woman into an Australian Parliament.
Which three guests, dead or alive, would you invite to dinner?
Marie Laveau, Janis Joplin and my Little Nana.
What are you currently listening to, reading or watching?
Listening to Once for with Feeling the soundtrack (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), watching the current season of Ink Master and reading Free by Kristen Ashley.
If you had to compete on MasterChef, what dish would you cook?
Does frog in a pond count?
Where is your dream holiday destination?
I would love to go to San Francisco one day.
What were you like as a kid?
Very independent, always wanted to do everything myself and of course, I was always reading!
What was your first job?
Working in a sandwich shop making lunches for the local tradies.
What are the three most used apps on your phone?
Facebook, Instagram and Youtube.
What’s one question you have always wanted answered?
Why doesn’t the government see how valuable our public libraries are and increase our funding so we can continue to provide, improve and expand our services to our communities, especially those that are most vulnerable? More and more people are turning to their local library for help more than ever with the cost of living rising so dramatically.
