I have always had a love of cats growing up with them and collecting strays to bring home.
In 1992 I got my first pedigree cats, a Turkish Van girl for breeding and a Birman neuter to show.
I decided to change breeds and in 1999 I imported two Norwegian Forest Cats and bred them until 2021.
I have been a steward for many years and held positions in all facets of show management for a few clubs.
I also produced the NSWCFA journal for 8 years. I became a Group 1 Judge in 2017 and in 2025 a Groups 1, 2 & 3 (Junior Shorthair) Judge and this year (2026) became an All Breeds Judge.
My other love is photography and I am often found taking photos after judging is finished.
