Summary

I consider myself a trustworthy, compassionate, caring individual who has maintained full time self employment for the most part of my working career as a single mum. I am immensely proud of my achievements.


My primary focus during the term of my 21 year career has been my dedication to work within employment environments which enables me to contribute valuable support to those who need it most to ensure my clients lives are full and enriched every day.


Working with clients with disabilities, aged care and providing home support for parents with young children has always been an area of employment I am most comfortable and content.


My additional work life experiences within cleaning, trades assist and clerical administrative positions has provided many new pathways of opportunity yet to be explored.


My experiences have gained me a strong skill set in a number of specific areas through practical undertaking over and above learning within a classroom environment which has always been my preference.


I enjoy meeting new people, learning new skills and providing value to assist those I work closely with to achieve team driven goals.
