Having graduated with a Bachelor of Behavioural Science (Psychology), from Flinders University, I am able to draw from robust frameworks whilst reflecting on extensive workplace experience. My Career Development roles continue my passion for navigating individuals through career decisions, ensuring they have tools and resources tailored to their chosen field. Working across high school and tertiary contexts allows a full understanding of education and employment pathways; in a complex and dynamic labour market. Supporting Students from equity groups provided an opportunity to collaborate with both student support services and Employers. Since 2015 I have supported over 250 elite Athletes across two Olympic/Paralympic cycles, a home Commonwealth Games, and multiple World Championships.
