“I have the most beautiful souls in my life supporting me and helping me to follow my dreams. I love them more than I can ever express in words.”

“When you lose someone whose life was so extraordinary like my dad's, you have two options: You can curl up in a dark corner... or rise above it and dust yourself off and continue with their work. He will always be with me.”

“With Dad, he was the ultimate wildlife warrior, and we admired him more than anything.”

“Everything I do in my life I do to make my mum and dad proud. I want to carry on in my dad's footsteps and make sure that his legacy lives on forever.”

“Dad is and always will be my living, breathing superhero.”

“One day we were sitting in our little classroom in the middle of Australia Zoo, and Dad bursts in and says, 'OK, today we're going to go climb a mountain,' - the Glass House Mountains are about 20 minutes away - so we packed up all our math work and ran out the door and climbed Mount Tibrogargan.”

“I'm so excited to be carrying on in Dad's footsteps and making sure that everything he worked so hard for continues for the generations to come.”

“I like cups of tea and reading books and poetry and old people things.”

“I love having my birthday at Australia Zoo.”

“It's human nature that if you get 20 positive comments and one negative one, you're going to focus on the negative. We all do that. It can be something that drags you down. It's easy to get bogged down with it, but I try to concentrate on the good things.”

“I live in a town called Beerwah, right in the middle of Australia Zoo. It's not hustle and bustle and busy, so that's helpful. We travel all over the world, but I've always been able to come home and run around in the middle of the Australian outback.”
