Two nights a week, and some Saturdays, I go to TAFE, studying to be a child-care worker. I'll qualify at the end of the year. I used to work as a cleaner at Lachford Barracks and other areas of the army. I even worked in the office for a while.

I live with my Mum in Wodonga. I'm her carer. She's had a rough few years since an injury to her leg. She's had a great big skin graft on her leg and she needs to take a lot of care with that. She's OK with looking after herself for most things but she can't go out in case her leg gets knocked. So I do shopping for her. Things like that
