Volunteer work

I began training with Lifeline Australia in January 2019 and received certification in April 2019. I still currently volunteer at the Broadbeach Crisis center. I am passionate about mental health and believe all Australians should have access to a crisis support line whenever they are in need.

In Barcelona I ran free mindfulness introduction workshops in schools introducing simple relaxation techniques to children.
