Growing up in Seven Hills NSW 2147 during the 1980's and 1990's you needed a thick skin. I had received Postcode Prejudice as early as a 12-year-old playing for the Seven Hills Bombers AFL Football Club from rival players and parents located in Sydney's Hills District.  From that moment on, I embraced my identity as a Sevo Boy and proudly wore my postcode as a badge of honour. I loved where I grew up! 

I completed my education degree at University of Western Sydney, Nepean Campus and taught in the Golden West of Sydney for 19 years in several suburbs around Blacktown. My mission was to empower my students to strive for greatness and defy the negative connotations associated with their local area. I wanted to instill a sense of pride with their upbringing. I have since relocated to Brisbane, Queensland in January 2020

I hope to share inspirational stories of people who are successful in their endeavours, in spite of their four-digit postcode.
