My ability to give names to things has been recognised by the Government of New South Wales who have subsequently employed me as the Secretary to the Geographical Names Board of NSW.

What might you ask does this Statutory Board do?

Simply put, if you know of a Creek, Mountain, River, Suburb, Town or any other geographical feature that either needs a name change or is not named, come and see me and I will help you organise it.

Names are extremely important for social and cultural identity. They let us know where we live and give us a good idea of where we have come from. Now where we are going is a different story all together, for this you need a map.

Maps are another important aspect of my career as LPI NSW, who has the responsibility for mapping the Great State of NSW, currently employs me.
