Welcome to my Website
I hope you will find it informative and a useful resource for contact with the New South Wales Parliament and for issues of concern to you.
My views over the years have been shaped by my upbringing in a small country town on the mouth of the Snowy River; my 21 year army career; my experience as a small business owner; my family; and my respect for our Australian military history.
My political views are inspired by the heroic commander of the 39th Militia Battalion at the battle of Isurava, Lieutenant Colonel Ralph Honner DSO MC. Honner also served his country as State President of our New South Wales Liberal Party and was later appointed as Ambassador to Ireland. He was a distinguished Soldier – Statesman in every respect.
“Honner’s political philosophy embodied the belief that courage, hope, fortitude and endurance are all nutured by conviction. The strong and united community is supported by a continuity of a great tradition. He believed that it is not wealth and power and organisation that hold a society together but its Christian faith.”
I look forward to keeping in touch through our regular newsletters, media releases, blogs and updates to the website.

I usually communte between Camden and the city via Narellan Road, the Hume Highway and the M5 – a distance of 71 km. On many occassions I have averaged around 40 km/h – it has to be Australia’s longest school zone. The M5 ‘funnel’ is a story of its own. Speed cameras are a cruel [...]
