Summary
Having had the privilege of working with children for eight years, I am extremely passionate about child protection and advocacy. I bring a very valuable and unique blend of education and hands-on experience working with children and young people. Holding a Bachelor's degree in Policing and Criminology, complemented by a Certificate III in Early Childhood Education, I possess a strong understanding of child safety, legal frameworks, and social work principles—key components in supporting vulnerable children and families. Throughout my career, I have worked extensively with children in various capacities, most recently as a personal trainer specialising in the health and well-being of 13–18-year-olds. My background equips me with strong interpersonal skills, risk assessment abilities, and a trauma-informed approach, making me well-suited to working with at-risk youth. With a commitment to child welfare, combined with analytical skills from my criminology studies, I am eager to contribute to safeguarding children and strengthening family outcomes within the community.
