A business owner, professional bookkeeper and tax practitioner, community volunteer and campaigner, Adelia has retired from all private business activity to work full-time as a Councillor because she is committed to ensuring an open and inclusive Council with community representation.

Adelia aims to apply her community advocacy, business and financial experience in support of improved Redlands Coast planning, governance and environment outcomes.

A qualified veterinary nurse, Adelia has actively campaigned and advocated to protect and save the Redland Coast koalas and their environment and worked to bring a protection Act to Queensland.

Adelia has used her established business activity experience to establish an import and export business as well as bring an awareness campaign and fundraise to bring a koala ICU to Redlands.

With three decades of volunteering in support of Redlands Coast community organisations, like Rotary and Forum, Adelia has used her business and financial experience to help support organisations ranging from sporting clubs, schools, and Army Cadets to the Redlands National Trust of Queensland.
