While I am now retired, for 45 years I had a career as a registered Nurse/Midwife. During this period, I also had an eight interlude as full-time political organiser with CEC based in Melbourne. Today, I am the State Secretary for the CEC in the Northern Territory.

As a mother of four grown children and a grandmother of five grandchildren, I am passionately concerned for their future, and I love to impart to this new generation, my love of history, philosophy, theology, space: building things, mechanics and a lot more.

In 1991, that’s 28 years ago, a good friend introduced me to the CEC and the late U.S. statesmen, former U.S. presidential candidate and physical economist Lyndon LaRouche’s Executive Intelligence Review magazine.

I can also recall seeing one of Mr LaRouche’s 1988 presidential campaign TV shows whilst on a stop-over in Hawaii on my way back to Australia from my first overseas trip.

What Mr LaRouche was saying made so much sense and helped me understand some of my wonderings, i.e. why my children had less opportunities than I had had when I finished school, the rubbish they were being taught, and why costs and prices were rising so much.

I moved to Melbourne from the rural Victorian town of Donald in 1994 and joined the CEC team in Coburg. A whole new world of discovery unfolded and is still unfolding: poetry, learning to play a musical instrument, being introduced to classical music, singing, how the solar system functions.

In 2002, I returned to nursing in Melbourne but found the health system to have been taken over by bureaucracy; it was “costs” not “care”, documentation beyond reason, computers and "obey the rules " imposed, which were counter to all that I was taught. The internal structures of management from a nursing perspective became on a "need to know only" basis, which I believed was detrimental to providing quality patient care.

In 2006, with my children now all independent, I decided to move to Darwin to "fill the gap" with our ideas. CEC leadership was present in the other States but the NT needed more activity.

I am standing as your Senate candidate for the Northern Territory because I believe it is vital that we free Australia from its colonial shackles by empowering the population, through the CEC  ideas, to realise the potential within themselves, to develop this country and in so doing, discover their true mission: to ensure the well-being and future presence of humanity as a unique creative species on our planet and within our Universe. Our present leadership lacks the moral quality and the vision required for the future of this country in this time of crisis, and I am standing up to defend the people.

Two writings have particularly inspired me: the U.S. Constitutions preamble stating the principle of "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" and Australian poet Charles Harpur’s poem, "War Song of the Australasian League".
