SUPPORT COORDINATOR AND COMMUNITY LIAISON
As an NDIS Support Coordinator, I am dedicated to empowering individuals with disabilities to live an independent and fulfilling life.
With 30 years of personal experience supporting a loved one with a disability, I understand the challenges that come with navigating the NDIS and societal barriers to equality.
I bring a strong sense of advocacy, courage, and passion to my work and strive to make a positive impact on the lives of those I support.
In my spare time I’m a slave to my kids basketball and I escape the pressures of life with my art, I especially like water colours and drawing.
My pet hate is it’s “football” not “soccer”.

Hi, I’m Em.
As a NDIS Support Coordinator, I get to spend my days working closely with Participants, their families, and their Care Teams. I enjoy the opportunity to work within a team to support and empower someone to achieve their individual goals.
I don’t have kids, but I do have cats.
Possum is a little ball of fluff; she dribbles and yells for food constantly. And Felix, a long-haired tuxedo boy with diabetes.
I love to learn and am currently finishing a bachelor’s in forensic science and a bachelor’s in criminology, along with an Advanced Diploma in Psychology.
I have experience in the Aged Care sector, particularly within the dementia and palliative care sectors. I ventured out into disability supports and then shortly found myself in Support Coordination.
I love caring for and supporting people. I appreciate the unique privilege the role plays within participants lives and feel determined to ensure my participants are living the lives they want to.
