I am a Perth girl, born and raised. I love WA and can’t see myself anywhere else! I happened to stumble across Inclusion WA in late 2014. After graduating as an Occupational Therapist I decided to take some time off from work and uni life to focus on my biggest hobby, music. I began volunteering for Catch Music, facilitating jam sessions for people who wanted to get together with like-minded musicians. Fortunately for me, Catch Music sent me on a training day at Inclusion WA. After the session, I thought “wow THIS is where I want to work”! The rest is history, my ‘gap year’ lasted for about 2 months and I’ve been with Inclusion WA ever since.

I was born in England and moved to Australia in 2009 with my parents and younger brother. My career aspirations changed all throughout high school, I wasn't sure what exactly I wanted to do. All I knew is that I wanted to work in a job where I could make a difference in people's lives and where no two days are the same. I originally headed towards the path of midwifery, but I didn't enjoy the Nursing course at Uni, so I deferred and instead took up a Diploma of Youth Work at TAFE. Coming toward the end of my studies, I found Inclusion WA on SEEK and immediately fell in love with the organisation and felt that the role complemented my studies well. I soon enjoyed the role and haven't looked back!
