Thank you for your incredible service to our community.

Grateful to be appointed to the Shadow Cabinet as Shadow Industry and Innovation Minister and the Manager of Opposition Business in the House of Representatives, by Liberal Leader Sussan Ley MP.

Thank you to our Hills community for making a difference and raising nearly $300,000. Since the inaugural Hills Relay $6 million has been raised for much needed medical research to find a cure for this devasting disease. It is a privilege to represent such a generous and charitable community that continue to come together to support each other and important causes.
