| I’m a university student studying early childhood teaching and loves the outdoors and has babysat my cousins since I was 15. I have certifications for first aid and CPR as well.

| I have volunteered overseas in Cambodia through Transform Cambodia, and Vietnam, through Samaritan's Purse. These opportunities exposed me to extreme poverty and adversity whilst witnessing the importance of human connection, faith and compassion. My responsibilities in these roles included engaging with the children, teaching and setting an example. It also provided me with the skills to operate in a highly social environments where children’s needs are put first. I have also tutored primary students where I learned to adapt to each individuals needs when guiding and teaching them. My responsibilities in this role included creating a space where the children felt safe to make mistakes and to take on new information and apply it to their studies. I have volunteered with Open House Christian Involvement Centres in many different positions such as waitressing at the Welcome Cafe events it holds such as the Christmas carols and Backyard Sport end of year breakups, the school holiday program and playgroup program. These positions have allowed me to build a compassionate ethos, to understand and support others.
