About

Seeing other people happy, inspired and successful with their accomplishments brings me so much joy. I'm at a place in my life where what and how I contribute isn't necessarily tied to great monetary reward but to that joy I feel inside. I really want to make a positive impact on the wellbeing and quality of life of others. I have a background as a sales leader in the corporate world. I have built teams, encouraged them to strive for not only company goals but their personal goals as well. I have been a coach and mentor to many people's careers. I love to encourage people to pursue their happiness, passion and their dreams. I have a lot of compassion, empathy, and kindness that I express in my day to day life, and I can't wait to share as a social carer. I am very easy-going, patient, loyal, extremely organised, and a social being. I truly feel I can make a difference in the lives of those who I come in contact with, or that's my goal anyway. I am really passionate about food. I love to cook, experience global cuisines I can't cook and make food for people. It's definitely one of my love languages. I love live music and going to concerts. I enjoy going to the movies. I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback dog, we spend a lot of time outside and on walks. I'm not a stranger to many of the parks around Sydney. I love swimming in the the ocean and exploring different beaches. I like to listen to audio books (more than reading these days). One of my favourite pastimes is visiting/conversing with my older neighbours, hearing their stories and talking about different worldly topics. I play cards, board games and puzzles. I love a good spa day. I love to get lost in gardening. I really enjoy traveling and exploring new cultures. I am a great friend and listener. I used to do yoga until I injured my shoulder, I am on the mend now. I'm into meditation, there isn't a day that goes by where I don't take some time to myself for my practice. I like to go shopping. I am business savvy coming from a career in sales and marketing. I am an American who moved to Australia in 2015. I loved it so much I decided to stay and secured my Aussie citizenship during COVID in 2021. I have dynamic personality and can get along with just about anyone. I am a giver, not a taker. I have strong family values, morals and ethics. I hold myself to a high standard. As mentioned previously, I have so much love to give! While I may not have much experience yet as a Social Carer, I'm willing to learn how I can enrich the lives of those who have special circumstances and specific needs.
