A lot of my identity as an Aboriginal person is about family.
It takes a lot of courage as an actor to take time off for family. But family is everything.
One of my earliest memories is being backstage at Bran Nue Dae in Darwin when I was about eight. Its such a fun, happy show and a real celebration of being Aboriginal... it felt really great and achievable as a career. It all felt normal.
People look at me and they dont see what they think is a typical Aboriginal.
