Summary

I am a reliable and compassionate support worker and retail assistant with over 7 years of experience across customer service, disability support, and running my own support business. I bring strong communication, time management, and empathy to every role, along with lived experience that gives me a deep understanding of people going through hardship. I'm looking for a new opportunity where I can contribute, learn, and grow in a supportive and purpose-driven environment.
