I’ve spent years working with vulnerable communities in the international development sector. More recently, I worked at the University of Sydney where I saw first-hand how investment in education and research changes lives – I know that with hard work and a good education, everyone can build the prosperous and safe future they want for their family.

Reid is one of Australia’s most culturally diverse electorates, with the second largest number of people with Chinese heritage, and a thriving community that includes Indian, Korean, Sri Lankan, Italian, and Greek Australians. There are a high number of professionals and degree-holders, and a growing number of young families and successful small businesses. There are many communities of faith in the electorate who all contribute to the wellbeing and vibrancy of Reid.
