Jacqueline Houlden DIRECTOR
I am very happy and proud to be on the ETC Board My career path has been one of constant reinvention, ranging from University, unemployment, years working the film industry in Melbourne, to teaching in Boggabilla, Wagga and Tamworth and currently running an online software company with my husband here in Coffs. We have three children who attend schools in Coffs and are delighted to call Coffs home. My parents are what I would call "permanently displaced aliens", having left Europe in the war, settled here, moved to the US and then back for their last move hopefully to Coffs. I feel that all these influences have enabled me to bring experience, empathy and a wide variety of viewpoints to my role as Board member.

Tracey Adendorff DIRECTOR
I moved to Coffs Harbour from Sydney with my family for the ultimate "sea change". What I found was a growing community and a town I am passionate about. I completed a post graduate Dip. Ed whilst here and I teach one day a week at Bishop Druitt College. The remainder of the week is dedicated to running the Coffs Coast Tourism Association which is both challenging and extremely rewarding. For me personally, I am excited about being involved with a dynamic and evolving company like ETC that can make a difference to our community and contribute to its future economic and social growth.
