Summary

I have been in the Disability Sector for 7 years and for all that time I have been lucky enough to have had various roles, from a Support Worker to a Business Enterprise Manager.

I have a passion for improving the lives of people living with disability and adopting a person centred approach.


I have a high degree of integrity, I am honest and trustworthy. I practise and encourage open and honest communication and take accountability for my actions.
