Daly is a recent graduate of Mount Carmel College and is employed as an Apprentice Boilermaker at Samaras Group. Whilst undertaking Vocational Education & Training at Western Technical College, the opportunity to experience working in a high paced workshop at Samaras enabled Daly to form a strong idea of his first career step whilst he was still at school. With the support of his school, family, VET trainer and his employer, Daly graduated from school with a career pathway and a sense of purpose, as well as his SACE.
