Nickname: Good Feeling Baz, Hunky Spunky Sparrow
Occupation: Storeman/Logistics
Favourite How Ridiculous moment: Definitely a tough question, we’ve shared so many great moments together other than just shooting. Our trip to visit the Compassion head office in Newcastle really stands out! Was a full-on 48hours that the four of us spent together. It is however pretty hard to top the feeling of catching the frisbee > …. something i will never forget. My favourite How Ridiculous video would actually be the Himilayas Edition Brett did while he was on a mission trip in Nepal… i was just blown away the whole thing, I just love it!
Favourite How Ridiculous quote: “if anyone was to slip and stumble and go over the edge….ah you will be killed” and “who even dares to try this?” (both from Boya Quarry story on TV)
Random fact: My family pool is the home to the greatest pool volleyball spectacle on the planet!
Interests: Sports always been one of my greatest passions! While basketball was and is my biggest sporting love, I have grown to appreciate a wide range of sports. Some of the teams i support are the Perth Wildcats (NBL), Oklahoma City Thunder (NBA), Arsenal (EPL), Chicago Bears (NFL). aside from sport i love hanging out with the crew from Lifestreams Christian Church, an amazing bunch of people!
Favourite bible verse: Proverbs 3:26 “for the LORD will be your confidence…”
