I, with some amazing people, began Challenge in Johnsonville in1988, as a local youth initiative to support young people to develop and achieve their potential and older people to serve and thrive not just survive. I didn’t expect Challenge to reach thirtyeight years of age! But here we are.

So all up for the past forty nine years I have been privileged to walk with young people, families, agencies, businesses, communities and interest groups to assist them to overcome challenges, channel their strengths and contribute to their communities in a life-giving, fair, caring and just way.

I’ve enjoyed every moment here at Challenge – especially the challenging times and am committed to try do my bit to help bring about a community, city, country of justice, peace, hope and wellbeing. My philosophy is that “love works” – sooner or later. So with that charism-life force and some knowledge and commitment – all things are possible and miracles can and do happen.

In terms of a job – well I love accepting challenges and am happy to train, support, advise, facilitate, advocate, problem solve, speak or anything that comes my/our way. Keep loving and serving friends.
