A Bit About Me

What are you passionate about in your role?

​

As a support worker I enjoy walking alongside people with disabilities, cheering them on to work towards their goals and achieve their goals in their own time.

I love helping people of all ages and abilities, watching them grow in confidence, independence, set goal, work towards them and achieve them in their own time. Watch people go from being isolated in their own homes to confidently becoming a valued member of society.​

 

Why did you choose to work in the mental health/human services sector?

​

I enjoy working with people and helping them to be their best selves, make a difference in other people's lives.

 

​What do you enjoy most about working at Arise Society?

​

I like the flexibility to being able to have the work-family balance, the ability to choose the days and times I work, that works around my family. I am very grateful for the opportunities I have been given to work with such great people in the community, I have learnt so much over the last 3 year.

 

How do you approach challenges in your work?

​

I work through challenges in work with the support of the team and my family.

​

What hobbies and interests do you have outside of work?

​

Swimming, movies, church, crocheting, spending time with family and friends.
