About


My passion revolves around fostering well-being in the lives of those I have the privilege to support. With my extensive experience as a Support Worker at Like Family, I have had the opportunity to assist a diverse range of individuals on their unique journeys. My commitment to well-being extends beyond my professional roles; for 4 years, I served as a Mentor and Peer Worker, providing guidance and understanding to youth and individuals navigating psychosocial disabilities. This background has equipped me with a profound sense of empathy and a deep understanding of the diverse needs within our community. Tech-savvy by nature, I bring over 7 years of experience in digital marketing, graphic and web design to the table. However, my heart lies in the fulfillment that comes from helping people and supporting their well-being. Having been a primary caregiver, I found joy in assisting individuals with their day-to-day activities, fostering independence, and creating a positive living environment. My journey, both professionally and personally, has been enriched by extensive travel and exposure to diverse cultures. This has honed my ability to connect with individuals from all walks of life, ensuring that each person I support feels seen, heard, and valued. I hold a deep admiration for those who strive towards their life goals and those who seek support in their challenges. Whether it's assistance with transportation, social and community support, or skill-building, I am here to offer a helping hand.
