Dad always said “Follow your passion son,” so it was only natural that I would own a cleaning company one day! Cinderellas is a “Full Spectrum” commercial cleaning company. We are widely recognised as one of South Australia’s most progressive and innovative cleaning businesses. We use the newest and best equipment and only employ the BEST people. I get to employ these amazing people who love to work hard and get the job done. We are results driven and always looking for a new challenge and a better way to do things.Where are we headed? We are a family business, a fiercely South Australian company and we are expanding. Cinderellas will stay committed to grass roots SA footy and our partnerships with The SAAFL and Sturt Football Club have been long and rewarding. We are expanding our commercial cleaning activities and have just secured another major contract with a large national law firm. We have added five new apps to our “frontline operations.” Using their smart phone our staff can perform site inspections, report issues and even quote on the spot with photos, using state of the art technology developed by one of Adelaide’s leading tech companies. Our gutter cleaning division has just added two new property management groups to its client database and continues its strong relationship with one of Australia’s largest body corporate strata management companies. Two of our departments are moving into new premises …Wash Room Hygiene Services and The Cleaning Store will be located at the Rear of 10 Unley Road, Unley. Franchising? …this year!So when you’re looking around your office and you’re noticing the bins overflowing with rubbish, your desk needs a wipe and your thinking “The World is a Dirty Place,” just remember… “Thank God for Cinderellas!”

Tracey and I purchased a 20-acre farm in the Barossa Valley, SA, 7/03/2024. Using Permaculture, our goal is to develop a model of sustainable agriculture & community engagement. Despite past neglect by the previous owners, the availability of groundwater, good rainfall and the rich, ancient soils of The World Famous Barossa Valley, equip us for success.Key Aspects of Our Vision:Permaculture Orchard: Rejuvenating an orchard of 2000 fruit & nut trees using permaculture techniques to ensure biodiversity and sustainability.Egg Production: 50 chickens will be integrated into the farm’s ecosystem, providing organic eggs while enhancing soil health and controlling pests naturally.Mini Petting Zoo: Various farm animals will provide educational and interactive experiences for visitors, deepening their understanding of farm life.Farmgate Shopping and Foraging Adventures: Selling produce directly and offer foraging tours to educate visitors about sustainable food sources.Controlled Environment Agriculture: Utilising greenhouses and hydroponics, we will cultivate a wide range of plants year-round, increasing productivity and crop diversity.Vermiculture and Nursery: Improving soil fertility to support a nursery for growing trees, shrubs, and perennials.Honey Production and Ecotourism: Beekeeping and unique accommodations like a Tiny Home will draw tourists interested in sustainable travel.Value-Added Production: Processing fruits into dried fruits, conserves, jams, & olive-related products.Community and Culinary Events: Hosting events like High Tea, flower tours, & workshops will connect the community and visitors with agricultural practices.Local Collaboration Shop: Showcasing products from local artisans and producers, promoting the region’s agricultural & artisanal heritage.Our plan is more than farm productivity revival but creating a centre of sustainable practices and community involvement. The community is invited to join us in this exciting transformation.

Permanent Naval Force (1992 - 1996). Active Reserve(1996 - Current)I have remained in the service of The Royal Australian Navy since January 5th, 1992. Concurrently since 1997, I have also been involved in the hospitality industry as a chef (Regency College of TAFE Commercial Cookery Certificate), to working in Key Management roles with companies such as Australian Leisure & Hospitality, Fosters Australia, Saturno Hotel Group, Taverner Hotel Group & The Gunn Hotel Group.My Navy experience was invaluable when, on December 2007, I led The First Response Command Team that oversaw the clean-up of all the fire affected sites on Kangaroo Island on behalf of The Government of South Australia. Living on the land, mostly without electricity or access to running water, the Cinderellas team was tasked to bring popular tourist sites such as Seal Bay, Kelly Hill Caves, Cape Borda & Cape du Couedic Lighthouses and Flinders Chase National Park back on-line, after fire had decimated the settlements.
