Stars of Wollongong 2024

I'm fundraising for...

When the opportunity to join the Stars of Wollongong Dance for Cancer 2024 presented itself, I couldn’t resist. Cancer has touched my family, and if I can contribute by showcasing my (admittedly questionable) dance moves, count me in! Learning from a professional dancer? Well, that’s a dream come true. As the Director of Recruitment Operations at 360HR Solutions since March 2021, my role extends beyond mere staffing. I’m on a mission to ensure businesses in the Illawarra region are not just staffed but filled with passionate individuals who love what they do. Working alongside my energetic team, I find joy in matching talent with opportunity. Now, let’s talk dance! The beat of the '60s, '70s, or a '90s anthemβ€”bring it on! My playlist spans from Boney M to The Beatles (yes, you can absolutely dance to their tunes!). While my dance moves have mostly graced social events and birthday parties, I’m thrilled to take them to a larger audience. Hailing from Lancashire, I’ve called Australia home since 2005. The Illawarra region has captured my heart since 2007, where I share my life with my wife, Joanne, our three sons, and our beloved dog-child, Cruz. Off the dance floor, you’ll find me cheering for Manchester United (football is life!), and yes, I take my Fantasy Premier League team way too seriouslyβ€”I’m in the top 3% worldwide! But wait, there’s more! Hand me a fishing rod and a free day, and I’m off to relive cherished childhood memories. My grandad and I used to fish the canals, rivers, and lakes of the North of England. These days, I find solace trout fishing in the Snowy Mountains, especially when accompanied by my sons. So, whether it’s dancing, recruiting, or angling, I’m all inβ€”ready to make a splash!

Meeting Tahlia! A Dance Journey Begins

Walking into the studio, excited and nervous. Today was the start of something special – my first meeting with Tahlia, my dance partner for the Cancer Council's "Dancing with the Stars" event in Wollongong.
Right away, I felt at ease knowing I was in good hands.

Our introduction was easygoing, and I could tell Tahlia was not only a talented dancer but also genuinely passionate about our cause. We chatted and shared a few stories and decided on our song choice!! Very pleased with it.... leaving it a secret!

With Tahlia's guidance, I am feeling ready to take on the challenge ahead. With encouragement and support from Tahlia and our 360HR Solutions team, fueled by my determination to make our performance about making a difference for those fighting cancer.

Leaving the studio, I couldn't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to dance alongside such an amazing teacher.Β
