About Me
I am 18 years old, and I am studying for a Bachelor of Psychology at UWA, with the aspiration to be a clinical psychologist for children and youth. I am an enthusiast in nutrition for young people. I enjoy sports, playing volleyball on Thursday nights, and have played many others in my childhood. I occasionally spend my time down at the Salvos Store, volunteering at their retail outlets.
What are some of my strengths and hobbies?
I consider myself to be a good listener and a responsive person. I am reliable and a great model for young people. I enjoy active play, games that require a challenge, and quiet time. My hobbies include volleyball, music, cooking, beaches, and quiz nights.
What do I enjoy learning about?
I enjoy learning about the brain, how it functions differently among every person and why we do the things we do. I also enjoy general knowledge trivia, social history, and nature.
Why do I like supporting children with an autism diagnosis and their families?
I love being able to help children grow in a healthy environment. I think every child is unique, and I want to help children who have autism to express autonomy, develop their strengths, and improve on their weaknesses.
