Favourite Movie? It would be Apocalypto, it’s the kind of movie that has you on the edge of your seat the whole way through it.

Being able to help teachers with the kids that they are having problems with but most of all building relationships with the kids and seeing lives changed for the better.

What was your reason for getting into 24-7 Youth Work? 
I've always had a heart for the youth and I loved volunteering so much that I thought I’d like to give this 24-7 thing a go for real. Also I am doing an Youth Pastor Internship through Spreydon Baptist Church and 24-7 is part of the internship program.
