I love the variety of opportunities I have been given at RAW to really make a difference.

You know you are exactly where you're meant to be when someone thanks you for being present and sitting with them through some of the toughest times in their life.

The diversity and breadth of people across Tasmania's rural and remote communities and their stories is something I am increasingly in awe of.

To be able to walk alongside someone during their most vulnerable moments is both an honour and a privilege, and I'm proud to be able to be a part of an organisation and community that supports people to overcome challenges and adversity.

For those on the land in rural communities, life is challenging, with highs and lows each day.

Being able to have an understanding of these challenges, as I also live in these communities allows me to provide authentic and genuine solutions to help not only individuals but the community.

Our program is unique and not based in four walls as we can go to those in their own environment where they are comfortable is an absolute privilege to me.

Being a part of an organisation that provides practical and tangible interventions is rewarding and I get to see first-hand the impact and difference our program makes.
