Ross was born in Cohuna and spent most of his life living and working in the Gannawarra. Married to Linda, with two children, Ross is now retired, after 31 years with Goulburn-Murray Water.
Ross classifies himself as a volunteer, always willing to step in when help is needed. He is a life member of the Murrabit Football Club, and current 2024/25 President, having also spent time on the Central Rivers Football Board, as a member and Chair. Ross has recently become a member of the GMID Leadership Group, continuing his advocacy role for Gannawarra and rural Victoria.
Ross likes to relax with a game of golf and fishing, neither successfully!
Ross believes the Gannawarra is a great place to raise a family and enjoy all the assets this area has available. He sees his role in Council as part of the wider “Gannawarra Council Team”, with a focus on the strategic side of local government, using his connections and skills to help set future strategy and advocate for our communities.
