Terri Hart was born in Warnambool, Victoria. She grew up there and in Mt Gambier in South Australia with her five siblings.
At the ripe young age of 20, she had a sliding doors moment. An opportunity came up for her to take job in Tasmania. At the same time, her old workplace offered her the opportunity to move to Darwin to manage the operations of Mutual Community, a healthcare fund. She chose Darwin. That was over 40 years ago.
During that time she spent 37 years in the NT public service in a variety of roles. She travelled to Europe, served in the police force, raised a family and won the public service medal. These days, Terri spends her time relaxing and enjoying retirement.
This is Terri’s Territory Story.
