When I was at Trinity, I was very much drawn to the subjects and activities that were practical and involved communication and teamwork.   

In that sense, I was thrilled to be provided with more ways of learning than just in the classroom.  

I loved Visual Communications, and the 3D/perspective drawing skills I gained I still use in the workplace today.   

All the outdoor pursuits, from camping to climbing, rafting and sailing were very much up my alley.   

Part of the outdoor program that I really enjoyed was the leadership development and the communication and people skills that came with that.   

I still enjoy sailing today, and have since done six Sydney to Hobarts which was a really awesome experience. 

I gave singing and acting a go as part of the House performance competitions. While I didn’t find a passion for it, it helped me be part of a team and understand it takes everyone to contribute to achieve success, again which is an ethos that I’ve taken into my life and work.   

After school, I studied construction management and have worked across the commercial construction and residential sector since.   

At Trinity, everyone had the chance to lead in different ways which gave us the confidence to tackle new challenges.  

Having the mindset to take up new and different opportunities at work has allowed me to grow in my career and life well beyond school.
