What is your favourite quote that reflects the Unity Studios philosophy: “Everyone needs to be valued. Everyone has the potential to give something” – Diana, Princess of Wales.

What are your Qualifications: Bachelor of Nursing, Master of Health Management, Diploma of Law. Currently working on Cert IV Training & Assessment.

Hobbies: Board games, painting and crafts, cross-stitching and walking.

What do you love about working at Unity Studios: Aside from increasing my joke repertoire from one of our youngest mentees, I love our non-judgemental atmosphere. Even running the art classes, one of my projects didn’t turn out the way I was hoping it would. My mentees were quite quick to tell me that “I’d do better next time”, and just “to practice”. It makes me really happy that our vision and values are not only shown to our participants but also reflected back to myself and other members of our team.

What areas are you currently mentoring: Young Adult – Adult Team Leader – I oversee the secondary Art class on Tuesday evenings.
