 I am an Occupational Therapist and Clinical Coordinator with over five years of clinical experience in Mental Health Rehabilitation. My background also includes seven years as an Executive Assistant with project management experience, which has enhanced my skills in both operations and administration. This blend of expertise allows me to provide clinical therapy and support, while effectively coordinating and streamlining operations to help clients achieve their goals and thrive. Outside of work, I enjoy baking, watching movies, and spending time with my family.

With a background in business administration, developing, implementing and coordinating change in 

multi-national companies, IT and allied health, I bring years of experience in securing business activities, assessing and providing best outcomes for both consumers and business. I am driven by assisting and connecting with clients in positive ways to provide the best service and tailored to one's needs. 

I have several years of experience at an executive level in all things

stakeholders.

   I am an experienced Wellbeing Leader and teacher, with a passion for working with complex learners. I have dedicated my career to creating an inclusive and supportive environment for individuals who require additional assistance in their learning journey. My expertise lies in developing holistic strategies that address both the academic and emotional needs of students, ensuring that they have the necessary support to thrive. I believe in the power of empathy and understanding in creating positive educational experiences, and I am committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of those I work with.  

 I am a Registered Mental Health Nurse, qualified at Southampton University in 2010. I have worked in Australia and the UK in a variety of mental health settings with children, adults, older persons, inpatient and community. Passionately working alongside patients, advocating and supporting their mental health recovery is a daily driver. 

I am a final year psychology student with a passion for mental health, research, and disability support. I have worked in mental health and disability support for 2.5 years, supporting clients with day-to-day needs, social skills, organisation and routine, study skills, discovering and working towards goals, feeling connected, and more. I am also a research assistant at Flinders University and a research intern at SPELD SA, where I am working towards understanding contemporary issues such as social media and body image, and how kids learn to read most effectively. 

I am currently a Psychology Student at the University of Adelaide with aspirations of acquiring a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology. I have worked in my current role for approximately one year, and I am learning something new every day. I enjoy connecting with clients and supporting them in the community.

teacher and an occupational therapist. I began my career teaching in public schools initially in a special school then

transitioned into main stream schooling as a classroom teacher and then later as a Specialist Health Teacher. Most recently I provide functional assessments, prescribe assistive technology,
