Job title: Federal Greens Senator for Victoria
Proudest achievement to date: Being an activist, a parliamentarian, and an active member of my community whilst raising three children.
What or who inspires you? I’m from a strong matriarchal line of powerful activist women. I am inspired, and draw my strength from my grandmothers, mother, aunties and sister.
Advice you would give young people following in your footsteps: My grandmother always told me, never forget where you come from and who you are. That means connection, culture and the struggle of resistance.
