Meet former refugee, Eduardo Cruz, and hear about his "journey to justice" from El Salvador to become director of a leading law firm in Brisbane, Australia.

Eduardo was admitted to legal practice in the Supreme Court of Queensland and High Court of Australia in 2004. He is a member of the Queensland Law Society Accident Compensation & Tort Law Committee and also serve as Deputy Chair for Nutrition Australia Queensland.

Born in El Salvador, Eduardo speaks Spanish as a second language and is an avid trekker — having walked the Inca trail in Peru, Ciudad Perdida in Colombia, and the Camino de Santiago de Compostela in Spain on three occasions.

In this episode we talk about his passion for redemptive justice, his tattoos which include patron saint of El Salvador — Oscar Romero and even his reluctance in pursuing a career in law. The interview happened in the studio just after we enjoyed an ice bath & hot bath together, which probably explains the casual flow of this incredible conversation.

He is married with one boy, and they are fanatical Brisbane Roar and Socceroos supporters.
