About


Hi, my name is Kerry, I love personal interactions and making connections. I am a mum to 3 young adults and have a great extended family. I have always been a carer and having been working as a support worker with a different entity for over a year. My past work was in a student support role within a university where my main role was to provide pastoral/wellbeing support as well as assist with academic support. I am Indigenous Australian with a very unique and varied ancestry which I love to share with anyone that would like to know more. I have a great connection to my community and love to learn about other cultures and their connections. I care about peoples wellbeing, mental health and physical health as this is also very important to me. I have many interests and would love to be able share my skills, experience and story with others and hopefully learn more about them as well. - I am happy to share my skills and hobbies with someone in the community and depending on their circumstances I would like to encourage as much outdoor activity as possible be it in their own backyard, local park or walking trails. - As an Aboriginal woman I love to share my culture and very happy to answer questions even if it is out of curiosity. - I am quite ok at crafts and like to learn new skills myself so I would be very happy to attend workshops or activities with members and work along side - I also like to learn new recipes so I would be inclined to share some with members and also enjoy learning what they like to cook and eat. -I am also very much into fitness and health and like to inspire and/or educate people about living a healthy lifestyle in all aspects body, spirit and mind!
