I grew up in The Blue Mountains where I spent most of my primary years, although I was born a war baby in Bondi. Secondary school was started in Geelong and finished in several schools around Amsterdam. At 21 years of age I returned to Australia by myself. I’ve worked for Census and Stats Canberra (now ABS) as a graduate economist, then in banking for 20 years and since then in real estate for almost 20 years.
