Luke was first employed at McDonalds aged 14. For the last two decades he has developed training, primarily for the Defence industry, and various government agencies. He worked on a wide variety of technologies, processes and audiences and the New Generation Rollingstock trains in south-east of Queensland, the Air Warfare Destroyer ship, revisions to aviation flight rules across Australia, and on the short-lived MRH90 Army (Taipan) helicopter.
A long-time renter, Luke now has a mortgage on a very modest home and understands the plight that many face with cost of living and the rapidly escalating price of properties.
