Professional Experience
I am a social worker, registered builder, and Support Coordinator based in Melbourne’s Eastern suburbs. My social work career was spent in acute hospital settings, where I supported patients and families through times of change and vulnerability. Alongside this, I bring over a decade of experience managing a residential building company, and earlier in my career, working in the disability sector.
These experiences shape my approach to Support Coordination — practical, organised, and compassionate. While I am new to the role of Support Coordinator, I draw on my background in social work and business management to support participants and families to feel confident in navigating the NDIS, connecting with the right services, and putting systems in place that make life easier day-to-day.
Outside of work, I’m a mum of three who loves watching the sunrise, planning my next travel adventure, and enjoying time with my family (and our cheeky puppy, Teddie). Community, connection, and balance are at the heart of everything I do.
I’m always open to connecting with others who share a passion for making the NDIS experience simpler, kinder, and more effective.
