I've conquered for Cancer Council

Cancer does not discriminate


It touches everyone — whether it’s a parent, sibling, partner, child, or friend. For me, it’s personal. 

I’ve lost my mum, my dad, my cousin… and more dear friends and family than I can count. Some were fighters to the very end. Some didn’t even get the chance.

Statistics like 1 in every 2.3 people will face cancer in their lifetime are not just numbers — they’re names, faces, and memories.

 They’re birthdays missed, phone calls never made, hugs we can’t give anymore.

This is why I’m raising funds — to support vital research, to help those currently fighting, and to hope for a future where fewer people have to go through this pain.

 Whether it’s 💲1 or 💲100, every donation makes a difference.

Please, if you can, help me support this cause. Do it for someone you love. Do it for someone you’ve lost.
 Do it for the 1 in 2.3.

Thank you. 🧡💛💚

I’m walking for a cancer free future

I’m taking on 7 Bridges Walk on Sunday 26th October 2025 and will be uniting with the community to walk 28km around Sydney Harbour. 

Every year in NSW alone, more than 53,000 new cases of cancer are expected to be diagnosed and the impact on families, carers and communities is significant. 

Please sponsor me and help those affected by cancer. Every step counts because all funds raised will help Cancer Council NSW work towards the vision of a cancer free future. Thank you for your support!

So far this year I’ve helped provide:

742 kids with a SunSmart education

or

28 calls to trained cancer professionals on 13 11 20

or

37 hours of a research assistant's time to work on research we fund

Thank you to my Sponsors

This is a cause close to my heart and I appreciate your efforts. I have fond memories of visiting PJ and your family in Mount Isa. I often look back on the time we had a gathering of sorts at the house and Henry came home much earlier than expected and crashed the party, I was in fine form this night. He also tricked me into eating hot mustard once, not as much of a fond memory but one I think about and laugh about quite often
