I have spent 28 years working in the camping sector. Roles have included: Director of Outdoor Education for a school, local government providing community camping, owner/operator of a camp, running a ropes course training company and now as the Director of Camping for the Uniting Church.

I am a strong advocate for the importance and value of a vibrant association. When a Director of the CAV and the inaugural ACA I held positions of Treasurer and chaired sub-committees.

ACA serves and represents independent camp operators, not for profits, church camps, large and small operations and activity/program providers. I believe I am one of a few people with experience across all these constituent. I hold several tertiary qualifications including Bachelor of Physical Education (Outdoor Rec.), and a Masters of Business.
