What do you think are the best skills that you bring to your job?
I’m an active listener with strong empathy, a client-centred and friendly approach.

What are you happiest doing when you’re not working?
I’m happiest when connecting with others, I love meeting new people and spending time with friends and family. I’m also a big foodie and enjoy trying new dishes and cooking for the people I care about.

What would be your personal motto:
Every experience, good or hard, shapes who we are.

Who is someone you admire and why?
I admire Alexa Leary for her incredible resilience, positivity, and infectious spirit. After a near‑fatal cycling accident in 2021 that left her with major brain injuries, she not only relearned how to walk and talk but went on to become a world‑record‑breaking Paralympic champion. Her journey from hospital recovery to winning multiple golds in Paris demonstrates extraordinary courage and determination. Beyond her achievements, she gives back through her MoveForLex Foundation, supporting the hospital that saved her, embodying kindness, purpose, and a truly hopeful outlook.

What is your most outstanding achievement?
Completing an occupational therapy placement in Timor-Leste.
