About
I am naturally good in these sorts of roles. While I was completing my undergraduate studies, I was working in a geriatric dementia ward with Bendigo Health completing food and domestic services. Well once the pandemic hit, it was more important that I spent considerable time with residents, and I grew to love the human connection. I found a skill I never knew I had. To that end, I wish to continue in this fulfilling role moving forward while I pursue my PhD and beyond. I love the ocean, I volunteer full time as marine conservation lead with Earthcare StKilda. I snorkel and SCUBA dive and walk along the beach with my dog every day. I also paint and play guitar and have had a long career as a chef and as a farmer so I am able to help with many different tasks. Just how deeply i focus on kindness and compassion. I am an adaptive leader with ethics at the forefront of everything I do. nothing brings me greater satisfaction than seeing others succeed, so I tend to go out of my way to enable that to happen.
