Summary
Conscientious professional with extensive experience advocating for the social and economic well-being of individuals and families. Skilled at providing guidance, support and assistance. Strong communication and management skills and committed to inspiring community service. I have personally been involved in the NSW OOHC system for over 20 years as a foster carer, and I adopted my son in 2018 after 12 years of being his carer. My passion is with working with children and families and my current PhD is a reflection of this. My current PhD studies will compliment this role.
