Cameron McDonald, first on his INDEPENDENT ticket ‘Community minded, business focused’

Cameron grew up in Kiama and is one of five partners in regional law firm Culleton Lawyers. Cameron has two degrees, a Masters in Property Law and Business Law Transactions and a Graduate Diploma of Applied Finance and Investment. He has travelled extensively, been appointed to State and Australian representative sporting teams in a former career and cut his teeth in a top tier law firm.

Cameron is currently the President of the Kiama & District Business Chamber, a member of the Destination Kiama Tourism and Economic Advisory Committee, a committee member of the Kiama Show Society and founding member of the Kiama & District Stronger Community mental well-being group alongside Erica, Mark and Derek.

In his spare time Cameron coaches the U11 Girls Kiama Power AFL team (who apparently need little coaching). His family has a long history of serving the community, his father Al being one of the founding members of the Kiama Lions Club in 1970, and who is still a member of the Club. Cameron‘s wife Leah has served for the last 12 months on the Kiama Primary School P&C Association and their children go to Kiama High and Primary Schools. Cameron works tirelessly and has the skills and passion to make the Kiama LGA a better place.
