What inspires me to do what I do:
After working in the child protection field for 16+ years and the challenges and exhaustion this brought I felt that it was time for a change.  I joined the Disability services team as a Behaviour Support Practitioner and absolutely loved the ability to have a positive impact with the customers and families that I was working with. 

Areas of expertise/interest:

• Bacherlor of Social work
• Bachelor of Justice
• Trauma and Attachment
• Advocacy and customer relations.

The most rewarding parts of my role are...

• Connecting and creating positive relationships with customers
• Advocating and liaising to work towards the best interests of customers
• Where possible the reduction of behaviours and restrictive practices
