Summary

I am a keen learner with a strong passion for supporting children and families. My journey from being a dietitian to studying Family Ecology has shaped my understanding of holistic well-being. During my studies, I gained experience conducting literature reviews, facilitating meetings, and giving presentations. I have learned the importance of strength-based and culturally respectful approaches, especially while working with diverse communities. I enjoy building genuine relationships, working in teams, and contributing to environments where families feel supported and valued.
