Summary

Having completed a Master of Occupational Therapy in 2023, I have been working as an Occupational Therapist in the NDIS space for 1.5 years, which has been an invaluable learning experience and extremely rewarding, both professionally and personally. I am currently exploring alternate employment opportunities to better align with my areas of interest and workplace expectations. I have previously completed a Bachelor of Laws / Bachelor of Biomedical Science (2020), and have been admitted as a Lawyer of the Supreme Court of NSW (2021). I am looking to attain full-time employment that offers professional challenges and utilises my interpersonal skills, education background and my enthusiasm to achieve. I am an organised and highly dependable individual and am willing to take on challenges and added responsibilities to help achieve company goals.
