Welcome to Sharon who recently commenced with the HSW team!
What would you do for a career if you weren’t doing this? No idea! WHS is where it’s at!. If you could meet anyone, living or dead, who would you meet? I think Sam Neill would be good to chat with. He likes movies, wine, and New Zealand just like me. And I keep up to date with his farm animals on social media.. If you won the lottery, what is one of the first things you would do? Holiday or at least plan holidays until the time comes when we can travel again..
destination? Cook Islands – beautiful, laid back, and friendly. Although since lockdown, the furthest I’ve travelled is Newcastle!! What’s the last book you read? Blackberry Wine by Joanne Harris. What’s your favourite movie? Difficult question, it’s like asking which is your favourite child. I haven’t been to the cinema for ages but I saw Hunt for the Wilderpeople again recently on TV and had a good chuckle.. What are you currently watching on Netflix?
What job did you have prior to working at NSLHD? What was interesting or unusual about this role? I was the WHS Officer at Sydney Harbour Federation Trust. The Trust manages significant sites around Sydney Harbour so the best part of the job was the iconic views from all parts of the harbour. When you have 30 minutes of free-time, how do you spend the time? Playing with my lazy Golden Retrievers and taking them for walks.. What’s your favourite travel
I’m currently watching old episodes of The Office (US version). The only time when the US version has ever been better than the UK.. What are you passionate about? Caring for our natural environment, reducing waste, sustainability.
