Summary
I am a highly motivated and hardworking individual with a passion for helping others. I always strive to use my empathetic and compassionate nature to make a positive impact on the lives of others. This passion will prove to be increasingly important as I continue my studies as an occupational therapy student at the University of Canberra, as I aim to continue to prioritise and practice these traits along with developing new skills as I continue my educational journey to become a qualified occupational therapist.
