Photo by Caleb Francis Connie Austen Hold tight - we’re checking permissions before loading more content How old are you? 34 How long have you lived in Shepparton? Pretty much all my life, I left to study in Bendigo and came back. What do you do? I am a teacher at St Luke’s and also own the business Jam Packed. What are your favourite things to do in the region? Anything related to the kids; every time there are kids’ activities, that’s what we’re doing. Where do you see yourself in five years? Hopefully, making more money than I am now. We’ll still be in Shepp. We won’t be going far. News His story | Monsignor Peter Jeffrey News Residents dissatisfied with new bins News Faces of the GV
