Inspired by nature, we'll help you grow

Hi my name is Frank and I am a 51 year old married man, my wife’s name is Kesh and have three children, Jackson 24, Brodie 19 and Kyla 15.

I have lived in Castlemaine my whole life and really love the regional area I live in.

I am one of eight children, four boys and four girls. Both of my youngest brothers were adopted into our family at 2 years of age with both Paul and David having Down Syndrome. I have always had a special bond with my brothers and love giving extra support to help those who are in need. Since the death of my father 4 years ago I have become the nominated support and main contact for both Paul & David who live in supported care in Bendigo.

I left school at age 17 and completed an Apprenticeship as a Pattern Maker at TKL in Castlemaine, after my apprenticeship I changed my career to Customer service where I managed Supermarkets for several years. For the last 20 years I have worked with a Wholesale Confectionery Company Accredited Distributors in Bendigo. Starting off as a Sales Rep and for the past 11 years I was promoted as the Branch Manager, where I managed 33 staff servicing a third of Victoria.

Outside work I am very active in the community with my main passion in playing and coaching sport over the past 40 years. I really enjoy helping the development of all who I have coached and played with.

I will support participants to achieve their NDIS goals set out in their NDIS plan. I am committed to assisting participants in 1:1 support and I offer diverse support from assisting people with everyday tasks, getting out into the community, exercising, running errands, going out for coffee or meals and offering respite for participants and their families.
