In their own words

Dom was born and raised in the western suburbs of Melbourne to hard-working Italian immigrants. He learnt the value of hard work, family, and food! During his younger years, he played and umpired footy, was an Australian Army reservist and worked at Myer - Highpoint, all while paying for his own university degree upfront.
