They/Them

Summary

Having graduated from Western Sydney University with a Bachelor of Social Science in Psychology, my experience in academia, customer service and sex work means I am a strong communicator with exceptional problem-solving skills. My approach is always polite and professional, and I have the experience to work both independently and collaboratively. I am passionate about sex worker advocacy, and strive to make support resources more accessible, especially for marginalised groups where meaningful connections and trust building is vital.
