A little bit more about me
I strongly value maintaining a meaningful life outside of work. While my passion for helping others led me to a fulfilling career in psychology, I also prioritise time to recharge and engage in things that bring me joy. I love spending time on the coast, anything relating to the ocean keeps me grounded. I also enjoy live music, watching the O.C and reading. At home, life is made brighter by my Labrador x Kelpie, Kumo. I hope to one day have him trained as a therapy dog.
