A little bit more about me:

Like a Labrador I just love people and get energy and ceaseless enjoyment from being around others.
I have always lived in the Eastern suburbs and have heaps of local knowledge. I have a family member on the NDIS which helped me prepare for Support Coordination. Thanks for that Ben!
I love Mornington Peninsula where my five brothers live, and the sea in any season.
My new Rescue dog is keeping me busy at this time, as is some simple re-decorating. I do love colour!

My professional values are:

I seek to understand a participant’s disability, see their ability, and explore innovative options with them, to achieve the best outcomes.
The participant’s voice is the most important thing.
