'Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it is the only thing that ever has' - Margaret Mead
Who’s someone you really admire?
My grandma for her heart, honesty and sense of humour.
What’s your favourite place in SA?
Kangaroo Island for its beautiful beaches, community, biodiversity and sense of calm. Also an amazing rock climbing spot in Waitpinga, with incredible views over the ocean when you get to the top.
What’s been your proudest moment at Conservation SA?
Everyday interactions with the ASC community, whether its someone contacting us to find out more about a particular environment or sustainability issue and what they can do, or seeing workshop participants going away inspired to use and share new skills and knowledge.
