I grew up on a sheep and cropping farm north of Lameroo in the Mallee. I have the most wonderful memories growing up on the farm - a sense of freedom, horses, motorbikes, bonfires. As a young girl I loved walking the sheep with my grandfather and morning smoko when he would share my grandmother's homemade biscuits and cake. I believe my country upbringing contributed to my work ethic and success in business. Working in the wool shed at shearing time, my father taught me at a young age to never stand still and to always be doing something; pick up a broom, sweep the board. An attitude I will forever be grateful for.

I attended school in Adelaide as a boarder, then studied Interior
Design when I finished. I moved to Burra to manage an interior decorating business in Clare and fell in love with a farmer.

We then moved to Koomooloo sheep station northeast of Burra where we raised our three children, Jock, Posie and Hugh with the best (and some challenging) times that remote life can bring. Many gorgeous memories were made with claypan picnics, yabbying and school of the air gatherings. I loved my time in the bush and so grateful my children were able to have this foundation. We now reside in Adelaide where I run my interior design business from and am fortunate to work with many wonderful clients near, far and wide.
