      As a dedicated Social Work practitioner at Miraa House, I have significantly expanded my knowledge and skills within the NDIS sector. Collaborating with a multidisciplinary team consisting of dietitians, public health professionals, external Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists, Behavior Support Officers, and fellow Social Workers, I have effectively worked alongside participants with intellectual disabilities and other conditions. In this role, I have successfully formulated and implemented courses to empower participants in achieving greater independence. My contributions to participants' intake assessments and active involvement in developing client plans have been instrumental in facilitating personalized care.

Employing a strength-based and client-centered approach, I have skillfully built rapport with participants, fostering a trusting and supportive environment. My dedication to individualized care has been pivotal in tailoring interventions to meet the unique needs and preferences of each client.

      Engaging with the Logan community has been a valuable way for me to apply my Community Development expertise. This opportunity has enabled me to carefully evaluate the challenges of disadvantages, oppression, and discrimination that our communities are contending with. By organizing activities such as Playgroups and the KRANKS program, I've been able to listen to community members and learn about the changes they believe are necessary to tackle these issues effectively. As part of my role, I also had the privilege to collaborate with Child Safety Families. This experience provided me with valuable insights and deepened my understanding of the child safety system.
