I have grown up with an older autistic brother, while he was of the view he was in charge I was the one who looked after him.

I learnt significant sign language through a deaf cousin enough that i was employed for a short time because I knew sign language.

I have always gravitated to those in need.

Last year i started volunteering for white lion ( troubled kids in the foster system). Now i am moving away from welding to becoming full time in the NDIS.
