Summary

I bring a strong foundation in workplace safety and team leadership, developed through hands-on experience as a process worker and restaurant manager. In my previous role, I gained practical exposure to safety procedures, compliance checks, and leading diverse teams in my high-pressure environments. My time as a process worker has given me familiarity with PPE compliance, equipment safety, and operational routines: aligning well with WHS responsibilities. As a restaurant manager, I led teams with clear communication and a proactive approach to staff training, customer service, and workplace protocols.


I'm highly motivated to build a career in Work Health and safety, with a confident and outgoing personality that supports team cohesion and open dialogue. I thrive in roles that require strong initiative, adaptability, and a commitment to creating a safety-first culture. I'm eager to contribute to WHS operations, support team members with varying English proficiency, and take part in building safe, compliant workplaces.
