A bit about me, then it’s all about you!

You are about to embark on one of the most exciting times in your life and I would LOVE to be a part of it.

From the get go, this is ALL ABOUT YOU. But it’s also really important that we click, that I give off the vibes you’re chasing. So here’s a bit more about me that might help you to decide whether I’m your perfect third wheel.

Some non-celebranty things about me:

  • I don’t like mangoes

  • I have a Bachelor in Environmental Science and before becoming a celebrant I worked for the state gov for 8 years

  • I have a dog Molly and a cat Xavier. Remarkably, they are friends 

  • My favourite movie is Stand By Me (I crushed hard on River Phoenix)

  • When I’m not using my PA system for weddings I love to use it to sing power ballads on my back deck. My neighbours love me

  • I fulfilled a childhood dream in 2013 and volunteered at an orangutan rehabilitation/release centre in Borneo. I also volunteered at a gibbon rehab/release centre in Thailand. I love primates. I hate people who keep them as pets

  • I have one brother and he’s the funniest person I know 

  • At the age of 8, I started my first job. Stand up comedy. Gigging at the iconic Espy on many a Sundays. I retired at 16 to pursue boys and house parties

  • I suffer from anxiety. Proving it’s possible to thrive, have it together, be happy and suffer anxiety all at the same time

  • I have a son. Hudson. He gives me perspective. He’s the smiliest, most beautiful kid. Gifted you might say

  • My great grandmother lived to 105 years old, we lost her in 2020 and she’ll always be one of my favourite people 

  • I have a partner Mike. He’s the most wonderful person. We are opposites. But we make the best team

  • Before settling down in the burbs, I spent years traveling, moving house every year or so and generally floating around in a bubble of confusion. Ironically, having some of the best times of my life

  • I love being at home. I love my normal life. It’s all I’ve ever wanted

  • I’m super organised. A planner. I love lists and highlighters and I get teased for it...a lot 

  • I drink tea. Not coffee

  • I love to read

  • My girlfriends are like my family

  • Im all or nothing. I drink too much or not at all. I exercise every day or once every 3 months

  • After beginning my celebrant training back in 2016, the organisation I was studying through went into liquidation. Taking my money and accreditation with them. I got my mojo back in 2018 and did it all over again. Best. Decision. Ever.
