Andrea - Secretary
Self employed Family Day Care Educator with over 20 years experience. Community Service Background spanning over 25 years. Ability to convince multiple 4 year olds to eat Sandwiches. My father owned a Toyworld store when I was a child and loved building the LEGO window displays. I was lucky in 2014 to get to go to LEGOLand in Windsor and it reignited my desire to BUILD. Stared with modulars and minifigures and I am sticking to that! (and a little bit of Architecture, a few ideas sets, maybe a few animals.. OMG did you see the Taj Mahal?)

Cris - Treasurer
BIO: Brickventures Inc Committee Member since 2014 Graduate Australian Institute of Company Directors Diplomas in Management, Project Management, Communication & Marketing Career as a Business Development Manager within various industries. Two term local Councillor, founder of the Kinglake Ranges Men's Shed and founding member of the Kinglake Ranges Community Recovery Committee. LEGO: Started playing with LEGO in the 1970's through to the late 80's, this was followed by many years on the dark side until several years after my son was born. To begin it was all for him, but slowly the joy of LEGO returned and now 20 years later, the love affair has returned, with emphasis on Technic, Architecture, Advanced Models and Modulars.

Jason - Committee Member
BIO: Concrete Technical Specialist with Boral for 15 years in SA, NSW, WA and now VIC. Don't get enough time to spend watching powerboat racing on the riverbank. Bad at Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, but slowly getting less bad. LEGO: Huge Lego fan (even bigger than 10268) as a kid. Sold off everything in high school, but briefly got back into it around 1999 for The Phantom Menace sets. Got rid of all that a couple of years later. Got back into it with the purchase of 75105 after The Force Awakens came out while bored on break from FIFO work. Promptly discovered LDD and BrickLink and discovered I had a knack for MOC designing which has been evolving at a steady clip. In it for the brick.

Travis - Committee Member
Travis is a lifelong LEGO fan and unlike many never had a dark age. Travis has been involved with the Australian LEGO community since 2001 when he first joined MUGs. In 2006 he and 3 other members of MUGs put on the very first Brickvention at Melbourne University, which was the first event of its kind in Australia. Since that time Travis has served in a variety of roles on the Brickvention organising committee including secretary, vice-president and president. From 2010 – 2016 Travis served as the LUG Ambassador for MUGs and has travelled to LEGO events across Australia and around the world promoting Brickvention.
