Summary

I am from Gisborne born and breed, I spent most of my working life in retail and didn't start my journey into Social Work until 10 years ago. I haven't had the opportunity to complete my studies as I decided to go into full time work instead. Over the last ten years I have worked with whanau who have experienced trauma. I would like to continue my work in this field as I feel I have alot to offer.

I have excellent communication skills and the ability to build mutually respectful relationships. I work well in a team and also independently. I hold a clean full driver license and proficient on the computer.

Please do not hesitate to contact me for any further information
