Together as strong Gumbaynggirr Barrmarrany we are committed to our people, land & water to build and create new governance structures and embrace innovative change to ensure we live, protect and maintain our cultural values and identity.

I am passionate about the well-being of our people, regaining language and our cultural practices on Country.

My vision for the future is for us to refine our planning infrastructure and keep working collaboratively prioritising our actions and activities for Country and Sea.
