I got into this field by luck, really. I served in the Australian Defence Force for 13 years, working as a Rifleman, Mechanic, and Logistics Supply Chain Manager. I joined at 17, so the ADF was all I knew. After transitioning out, I connected with a company that helped translate my skills, and surprisingly, IT Project Management was a perfect fit. The funny part? I wasn’t a gamer, never owned a PlayStation or PC, and didn’t have internet until boarding school.
Now at The Missing Link, I’m a Senior Project Manager and team lead for the Infrastructure project management team. We align client goals with delivery to ensure every project produces real, measurable outcomes. I lead with a mix of pacesetting and coaching, setting clear goals and expectations for the team and our clients, and tracking progress closely to keep everything on course.
When I left Defence, I struggled to find the same camaraderie and sense of belonging. At The Missing Link, I’ve found both. Trust matters, and here, it’s lived every day.
Outside of work, I coach my son’s soccer team, hit the gym four times a week, train Muay Thai five times a week, and enjoy cricket, AFL, UFC, and spending time with my family.
