Our Story:
After successfully creating my dream job working from home alongside my best mates 🐕🐕🐴🐴🐈‍⬛🐓

I have dreams of building a business that is community minded providing flexible employment for people from all walks of life 🤗

With the knowledge gained from being selected as one of the 100 Federal Government Digital Champions Grant participants following being selected as one of the 30 Australian businesses to participate in the Facebook Gift Guide in 2019 I’m feeling like these goals are in the not too far future 🥳

Interests:
* All things Small Business
* Living the best Aussie lifestyle
* Horse riding, water skiing and badminton 🏸
* Animals in general but particularly horses and dogs

5th generation Castlemaine Vic, I love my home town!

Surrounded by family businesses and a mother who has just released her second book ‘Australian Rural Entrepreneurs’ - Kerry Anderson people are now not surprised to hear I purchased Fair Dinkum Dogs at 19.
I’ve always been very supported by my family and our local community ❤️
Which is why it is important for me to give back!
$2 from every coat sold goes to supporting the wonderful work of the Mount Alexander Animal Welfare Group.

Fun facts about me:
* Border Collies are my dog breed of choice (we have 2 💙❤️) but im a huge fan of many other breeds. When it comes to horses I love my Clyde crosses and rescues
* I was invited to meet the Queen when she came to Melbourne in 2011
* Ita Buttrose kindly introduced me to a rather large crowd. At 19 my legs nearly buckled when she asked me to stand 😳
* 2010 I won the Regional Achievers trades award.
* 2005 I groomed for the Australian equine team at the Sydney Youth Olympics.

Qualifications:
* Cert 4 age care and disability
* Equine Myofunctional Therapist

=> working from home I’m usually covered in Border Collie hair, fluff from sewing or dirty puppy paw prints ( Digger is slowly learning not to jump up 🙄) so I love that we can chat and I can listen and learn without having to worry about all of that makeup etc business 🤗

Really excited to be here and apart of this community of such amazing people!!
