My story: Gloria is a Wagaya and Kalkadoon woman, a mother to two adult children, and a grandmother to a beautiful grandson. Gloria’s children attended Koobara, and she has been working at this organisation for over 30 years! Over that time, Gloria has worked as the administrator, teacher and now the director. Her service to the community has been extremely valued, and as a result, Gloria is a well-respected member of the local community. She is loved for her humility, kindness and humour: there are not many in this world who are like her. She leads by serving others. Gloria is also a passionate Cowboys supporter and is most at home when the red dirt is under her feet.
