About Me

My photo
Jo Capp
I am 39 and feeling every bit of it and more. David and I have two children; Alexandra is 9 and Reid is 7. I grew up in central and southern Queensland and went to boarding school in Toowoomba. I went to Gatton college after school and studied (well I thought I was) hospitality. I started my career in Hotels at the Ramada Reef Resort in Cairns and later transferred to the Ramada at the Gold Coast. I met David, my Husband whilst I was living on the Gold Coast. He had gone to boarding school there but was working with Alpine Refrigeration in Toowoomba. We settled in Toowoomba, bought our home, got married and started our own business in Air Conditioning and refrigeration 10 years ago.
