About


Hi!! I have always loved collaborating and providing a helping hand to those around me!! I am an enthusiastic and smiley girl who enjoys the outdoors, food, crafts and taking care of people. I have always had an active role in the community - volunteering at our local aged care facility throughout my high school years where I worked closely with nurses to bath and entertain (e.g., crafts, chatting, cooking) patients, coaching the local netball team, organising community fundraisers (e.g., butterfly foundation) and running the student representative council at my high school. I am currently studying a bachelor of science/education (secondary) at UNSW. When my grandma was diagnosed with dementia I spent time keeping her company, making her smile and providing any assistance that I could without judgement or frustration. With this, I grew to be more patient and forgiving. Since then I have spent time volunteering in India and Nepal as a childcare facilitator and primary/secondary school educator where I design and run lessons to teach English, maths, arts and crafts, and general hygiene. I look forward to meeting new people and learning everything I can from them. ^& ^&I have recently taken a great interest in knitting and I LOVE watching a good tv show or sitting in the park while knitting. While I have only managed to knit a really long scarf I’m keen to develop my skills and technique. I would love to share my interest in knitting with someone in the community - whether this be by teaching them the basics of the skill or learning from others on how to develop my own skills. To teach this skill I would start with teaching them how to make a basic scarf - to stitch on and to cast off. Once their skills are a bit more developed I would love to make this activity even more exciting by taking them to a park or to the beach where we can sit in the sun, enjoy the view and each others company and knit. ^&
