I was born and raised in Sawtell and Toormina. I moved to Sydney after graduating from Toormina High School in 1999, where I studied and worked in many different industries, including working as a professional musician.
I completed my legal qualifications in 2013, after which time I practised in Sydney and Wollongong, specialising in employment and industrial law.
I moved back to Coffs Harbour in 2016 with my partner and our two dogs, which has been one of the best decisions of our lives.
I am currently practising as a Solicitor in general practice but also specialising in Workplace Law.
I am a member of the Law Society of New South Wales and the Industrial Relations Society of New South Wales.
I have found the team at Ticli Blaxland Lawyers to be warm, professional and incredibly competent.
I like nothing more than eating breakfast foods, drinking exceptional coffee and spending time at the beach with my dogs.
