I was motivated to become a Social Carer because l've always had a strong desire to help others and make a meaningful difference in their lives. I enjoy supporting individuals to achieve greater independence and improve their quality of life. Witnessing the positive impact of care on someone's day-to-day experiences is incredibly fulfilling, and it aligns with my values of compassion, empathy, and community. I believe I will be good at this role because I am naturally patient, attentive, and a good communicator. I understand the importance of listening to people's needs and adapting care to suit their preferences. My organisational skills and ability to remain calm under pressure allow me to handle challenges effectively. Additionally, my commitment to providing dignified and respectful care ensures that the individuals I support feel valued and understood. I love the outdoors, going on walks, on the beach, doing some maintenance in the garden. I do stippling art as a hobby as well as surfing, skateboarding, hiking and going to the gym. I’ve been a support worker for a two years mostly doing aged care and high needs disability, my main focus is helping people live independently. I’m studying Portuguese (Brazil) as a second language. I’m a friendly lgbtq person who loves a good chat but who is also a great listener.
