I started at MBSC at the beginning of the year after doing a term of CRT last year.

If you had a choice between two superpowers, being invisible or flying, which would you choose?

Definitely flying.

Favourite place in North-East Victoria?

The upper Kiewa Valley.  It must be one of the nicest parts of Victoria.

If you had to be shipwrecked on a deserted island, but all your human needs—such as food and water—were taken care of, what two items and two famous persons (not family!) would you want to have with you?

Sunscreen and a Swiss army knife.

Stephen Fry and Alice Roberts

Use it to commute to work.

What do you enjoy most about working here at Mount Beauty Secondary College?

I like that it is a small and very friendly group of people.

We finish the interview and you step outside the office and find a lottery ticket that ends up winning $10 million. What would you do?

Retire and travel a bit more. So many places in the world I haven’t seen yet. I’ll see if I can tick off all the places in the book ‘1001 natural wonders to see before you die’.
