Change is the heartbeat of life, and as we embrace it, we often find remarkable stories waiting to be uncovered. This week, I have the pleasure of introducing you to a fresh face in our editorial team, Sinead Porter, whose journey from the red dust of the desert plains in Western Australia to the coal dust of our vibrant Mackay region brings a unique perspective and a treasure trove of stories.
Sinead has experienced an interesting tapestry of heritage. She was born in Ireland and moved to the Mackay region as a toddler, before later moving to Brisbane and then Western Australia, spending her teenage years in a small town near Kalgoorlie, where the vast stretches of red earth and endless horizons are etched into her memories. Now, she has traded the outback for our tropical beaches, and she couldn't be more thrilled to explore the vibrant communities, rich culture, and the untold narratives that our region has to offer. Her deep-seated curiosity and passion for storytelling make her a perfect fit for our team.
With her unique background and fresh insights, Sinead is poised to uncover the tales that may have remained hidden and share them with all of you. Whether it's the latest in local news, human interest stories, or delving into the heart of our community, she's here to keep you informed and engaged. So please feel free to reach out with any community interest stories you would like told.
Also, our heartfelt condolences go out to Mackay Mayor Greg Williamson on the passing of his father last week. Our thoughts are with him and his family during this difficult time.
