“Aphrodite” is my birth name. Meaning the ‘Goddess of Love’ in Greek mythology only makes it more significant that, as a Civil Marriage Celebrant, I now participate in affirming the union of a loving and committed couple.
I have a beautiful son and daughter whose continued love and support throughout my journey in life has been immeasurable and am myself in a very loving relationship.
I lived in the USA for many years where I was an Executive Assistant to Senior Managers in high profile companies. The need to liaise with both my colleagues, senior managers and international academics, helped me to become a very confident and professional speaker.
I have travelled through many countries over the years, and the time I spent amongst varying cultures has given me a fondness and respect for the differences we all have in our beliefs and values, and naturally the rituals that follow them.
Upon my return to Australia over 20 years ago, I embarked on a career as a fashion retailer and assistant designer based in Adelaide, South Australia and relocated in 2004 to my tropical destination of Cairns where I am now totally and happily immersed in my career as a full time Civil Celebrant.
