Experience

I have worked with people with disability since 2024.
I describe my practice style as adaptive, collaborative and person-centred, tailoring my approach to meet each participant's unique needs.
In my free time, I like to spend time going to the gym, video gaming and with family or friends which often helps me build rapport with participants.
My participants often describe me as compassionate, engaging and understanding, reflecting my commitment to creating a supportive environment.

What I like most about supporting people:

What draws me to supporting those with disability is developing long-term relationships and empowering individuals to achieve their goals through evidence-based strategies.

I first entered the disability sector a Support Worker where I was in the role for three and a half years. This is where I was introduced to the NDIS and quickly found I enjoyed the collaborative, outcomes-focused nature of this work.

Prior to working in Positive Behaviour Support, I was working as a Dietitian for a year and a half, specialising in aged care, disability and private practice. This formed the foundation for my clinical skills and my ability to support people in a holistic way. While I valued this experience, I was motivated to return to the NDIS space to working more closely with participants and their care teams.

I am particularly passionate about Positive Behaviour Support and strongly advocate for approaches that uphold dignity, autonomy, and meaningful quality of life.
