Coming from a rich and diverse cultural heritage—Birri-Gubba from Queensland’s Burdekin River region, Magaram (Murray Island) in the eastern Torres Strait Islands, and with strong connections to the South Sea Islander culture of Vanuatu, Amos carries a deep sense of identity and pride in all that he does.
