I was born in Melbourne, November 17th and went home from hospital to my Nanas' house in Gordon Street, Coburg. We moved to our family home in Plenty Lane when I was around 1 year old.

I remember going to live with my Grandmother in East Brisbane, on our way to a posting in Port Moresby in New Guinea. We left around July of my first year in Primary school, Prep and then went on to live in Port Moresby for the start of Grade 2.
