About me

I have been a full-time stay-at-home mother for 15 years In this time, as well as raising my three children, I ran a home cake-decorating business for six years, volunteered many hours to our local basketball club, became a basketball referee, and worked part-time at a friend's art supply shop. I also studied for my Certificate III in Education Support

Now my children are grown, I have a great desire to go back to work and find a career that I can enjoy and see out long term. In my work as and Education Support worker this last year, I have grown to love the idea of one day teaching.
