After nearly 40 years of dispossession, the land of Jabiru was handed back to the Mirarr traditional Aboriginal owners during a ceremony on 26 June 2021. I am privileged to work directly for the Mirarr through Gundjeihmi Aboriginal Corporation Jabiru Town (GACJT), and assist them with governance and leasing. I am grateful to work alongside some extraordinarily dedicated and visionary individuals as we work towards bringing the Mirarr's Vision and Jabiru Masterplan to fruition. Prior to working with GACJT, I worked in a simialr role from April 2019 - June 2022 with Jabiru Kabolkmakmen Ltd, providing support to businesses and various stakeholders in Jabiru during this tenure transition. I was honoured to witness the handback of Jabiru to the Mirarr whilst in this role. From August 2014 - March 2018 I worked at Bowden McCormack, Lawyers & Advisers in a variety of roles, joining its team of lawyers following my admittance in 2016.
