Meet Our Team

I’m the Operations Manager at Luminary Supports. I oversee the day-to-day operations behind the scenes while also providing direct support to our participants. I love having the opportunity to balance administrative responsibilities with spending time out in the community supporting clients, as it allows me to build meaningful relationships and see the positive impact our team has every day.

I’ve been working in the disability sector for around five years, and it’s a career that continues to inspire me. Every day brings new experiences, opportunities to learn, and the chance to make a genuine difference in the lives of participants and their families.

Outside of work, I enjoy weekends away in our caravan, spending quality time with my family and friends, and relaxing at home. I believe that maintaining a healthy work-life balance helps me bring energy, positivity, and compassion to the people I support.

Whether it’s providing in-home support, assisting with community access, transport, or attending appointments, I’m passionate about helping participants achieve their goals while promoting independence, confidence, and meaningful connections within their community.

I’m all about building genuine connections and creating a space where people feel comfortable, understood and supported.

I’m naturally warm, calm and observant, and one of my “super powers” is recognising the little changes in someone’s mood, body language or energy so I can adapt my approach and help people feel at ease. I enjoy supporting people to build confidence and independence, while making sure they always feel valued and heard.

Outside of support work, I’m a wife, mum, animal lover and a small business owner. I’m a creative person at heart and definitely a homebody—but if there’s a bush walk, beautiful scenery or somewhere peaceful to explore, count me in!

A quote I’ve always lived by is, “People won’t always remember what you said, but they’ll always remember how you made them feel.” This mindset has always guided me and is something I bring into every interaction. 

When I’m not at work, you’ll usually find me playing soccer, spending time with family and friends, enjoying a quiet day at home with my cats, or getting outdoors and making the most of my free time.

I’ve been working as a Disability Support Worker for around 5 years. I’m easy-going, reliable and enjoy bringing a positive attitude wherever I go. I really value building genuine connections with the people I support and creating an environment where they feel comfortable, respected and included. I believe everyone deserves to be treated with kindness and encouraged to achieve their goals, no matter how big or small.

Some of my strengths include being patient, organised and dependable. I enjoy supporting people with community access and daily living, while helping them build confidence and independence along the way. Whether it’s getting out into the community, trying something new, or simply helping around the home, I’m always happy to provide support that suits each person’s individual needs and interests.

Most importantly, I enjoy making each day a little more positive, enjoyable and meaningful for the people I support.

I have been working as a Disability Support Worker for almost three years and have had the opportunity to support children, young people and adults with a wide range of individual needs. Throughout my time as a Support Worker, I have supported participants with Autism, ADHD, OCD and a range of psychosocial disabilities. I have experience assisting with daily living skills, community access, appointments, shopping, cooking and household tasks.

I understand that every person is different and really enjoy taking the time to get to know each participant, their interests and how they like to be supported. I have experience supporting participants through moments of emotional dysregulation and challenging situations. I pride myself on remaining calm, patient and positive, using clear communication and redirection strategies to help participants feel supported and understood. I have also recently completed my Diploma of Nursing, which has further developed my knowledge and skills in providing safe and person-centred support. 

Outside of work, I enjoy going to the gym, spending time at the beach, animals and cooking. I love getting out into the community and am always happy to try new activities. I would describe myself as caring, patient and approachable, and I look forward to building positive relationships with the participants and families I support.

I am a compassionate and dedicated Disability Support Worker with a background in childcare and lived experience raising three wonderful adult children in their 20s. Caring for others has always been central to who lam, and l am committed to providing respectful, reliable and person-centred support.

I understand that choosing the right support worker is an important decision for participants, families and carers. My approach is based on taking the time to understand each person's individual needs, preferences, routines and goals. I listen with empathy, respect personal choices and work to build genuine, trusting relationships.

I pride myself on being punctual, reliable and consistent, and l aim to create a warm, safe and professional environment where each person feels valued and supported to live life in the way that matters most to them. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends and travelling. I bring kindness, patience and a positive attitude to every support shift, and I feel privileged to be part of each participant's support journey.

I have enjoyed being a support worker for the last 2 years. I completed a Bachelor of Psychological Science and turned to support work to get some hands on experience with real people.

As a support worker I have a calm and easy-going nature that a lot of participants benefit from. I love to connect with participants by getting involved in activities and learning about who they are and what makes them unique.

Outside of work I spend time with my 5 year old daughter and play soccer on the weekends. In my spare time I go to the gym and recently started playing golf. I love to try out different hobbies and learn about participants’ interests. 

I’ve been working in the support industry for the past two and a half years, and it’s something I’ve really come to love. I enjoy getting to know the people I support, helping them work towards their goals and being there to celebrate the wins along the way. I’m someone who enjoys a challenge and likes figuring out different ways to overcome obstacles when things don’t go to plan. I believe support is about more than just helping with day-to-day tasks — it’s about building a good connection, having a laugh, trying new things and helping people feel confident and comfortable being themselves.

Outside of work, I’m a big fan of the outdoors and keeping active. I love surfing, snowboarding, fishing, camping, going for walks and spending time at the beach or out in nature. I’m also into gaming and enjoy a bit of downtime when I get the chance. I’m always up for an adventure and trying something new, and I love bringing that positive attitude into my work. For me, the best part of support work is being able to share experiences with people, help them reach their goals and hopefully make their day a little better along the way.

I have been working in the care industry for people with disabilities for 10 years with a high level of success in developing trust and helping to build confidence. My open and highly communicative approach with a strong sense of empathy has helped establish terrific relationships with all those I work with. This is a role I value in helping to make a difference to the lives of those I serve.

I have been working in the disability support sector for the past 7 years. During this time, I have gained valuable experience supporting people both in SIL (Supported Independent Living) homes and within the community.

Before working in disability, I worked in aged care for 5 years, which helped me develop strong skills in providing compassionate, respectful and person-centred care.

I am a reliable, caring and compassionate person who genuinely enjoys helping others and making a positive difference in people’s lives. I believe everyone deserves to feel respected, valued, supported and included, and I always aim to provide care with patience, kindness and understanding.

Outside of work, I am a proud wife and mum to three beautiful children. My family is very important to me, and I bring the same caring and supportive nature into my work with the people I support.

I am a compassionate and self-motived support worker with strong insight into delivering excellent care. I have been a disability support worker for the past 6 years, attending to the needs of the participant with anything that is required to have the participant to feel clean, comfortable and happy in their environment. Bringing the passion to assist people by providing them emotional and physical support while respecting their individuality and dignity.

I have also worked as a support officer in primary schools, due to having my certificate in education support, providing assistance to students with disability and additional learning needs. Prior to this I have a number of years’ experience as an Assistant in nursing in age care facilities, community nursing and doctors surgeries. I’m always very happy to assist in any given situation.

I’m a dedicated and compassionate Disability Support Worker with over 30 years’ experience supporting people of all ages and abilities, including neurodivergent individuals and people living with a wide range of disabilities. I’ve also spent over 15 years as a Team Leader in Supported Independent Living (SIL) and Respite group homes.

I’m passionate about building genuine, trusting relationships and providing person-centred support that respects each individual’s goals, choices, independence, and unique needs. I’m patient, reliable, empathetic and approachable, with a calm nature and a strong focus on encouraging confidence, strengths and meaningful participation in everyday life.

My experience includes community access, daily living support, personal care, companionship, skill development, and working closely with Allied Health professionals. I pride myself on being flexible and adapting my approach to provide quality support with kindness, respect, encouragement and professionalism.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my two children, grandbaby, family and friends, and my two-year-old female Cobberdog, Leilani. I also love travelling, cooking, yoga, strength training, walking and bushwalking, reading and watching movies.

I enjoy sharing interests and creating fun, engaging and meaningful experiences with people I support.
