WELCOME INGRID PAGURA TO THE AGWA TEAM

A

GWA takes this opportunity to introduce Ingrid Pagura, who recently joined the AGWA Training team as Industry Administration Coordinator. Ingrid has lots of training experience in WHS and safety, and even worked with the ABCB for a few years. 1. What is the most rewarding part of your job?

2. What are your all-time favourite movies?

The most rewarding part of my job so far is being able to see how the AGWA really helps its members and the role it plays in making the industry a safer place to work. My small role in enrolling people in courses and issuing certificates of completion helps ensure that these outcomes are met. The second rewarding part of my role is working with such friendly and helpful people, who have made my short time here so far much easier.

I have a few. My overall favourite, which I have watched many times, is The Godfather (Part 1). I love it because of the rich story and great actors and its influence on everything that came after it, including some of the lines (‘It’s not personal, it’s just business’). Any rom com, especially British ones, will get me as well. How many times have I watched Love Actually? Every Christmas. 3. What are your favourite travel destinations? Mission Beach in Far North Queensland. I had friends

who lived up there so I have spent quite a bit of time in the area. I love the ocean, how clean and salty it is. I love the red earth and all the sugar cane. It always looks different at different times of the year. My favourite international destination is Italy. I love all the history and art but also the great coffee, which is so cheap, and the lovely food. Most of my favourite places are because I have a happy memory or because my roots are there. My parents both migrated to Australia in the 1950s from north east Italy, so it was nice to see where they grew up

and to put a picture to the places they talked about. 4. Do you have any hidden talents? I am not sure if this is a talent, but I have a really good memory for trashy television shows and figuring out soapy plotlines very quickly. I also have a good memory for trashy 70s and 80s songs. I am not sure how this has helped me, but I can be useful on a trivia team. 5. What is your favourite quote or life motto? ‘That which does not kill you makes you stronger.’
