What are your hobbies outside of working?

Outside of work, I love spending time with my puppy Maicey and my cats. I also enjoy going to the arcade, watching movies at the cinemas, and getting out for fun activities whenever I can. I’m also a big TV lover and often find myself getting hooked on new shows.

What inspired you to become a Support Worker?

I’ve always been the kind of person who wants to make things easier and brighter for others, and support work felt like a natural fit for me. I love being someone people can rely on - whether that’s offering practical help, a bit of encouragement, or just a safe space to feel heard. Making a positive impact, even in small moments, is what motivates me every day.

What were you like growing up?

Growing up, I was known for being bubbly and full of energy. I was always excited to try new things and loved being out and about in the world. I was definitely a bit hyperactive too - never wanting to sit still and always looking for something fun to do.
