I provide customised support services to people with disabilities and am experienced at reviewing professional reports, histories and getting to know people.

Spending time to learn people’s likes, dislikes, strengths and needs help me tailor great, individualised services.

Through this process, I design personalised plans to help my participants reach their goals.

The programs I create are informed by contact with participants, families, carers and Allied Health professionals.

I provide personal, disability support under the following categories:

  • Assistance with daily life

  • Assistance with social and community participation

  • Assistive technology

  • Increased social and community participation

  • Find and keep a job

  • Improved learning

  • Improved daily living

Supported communication

If it can be used to communicate I know all about it. I have been working with Information Technology, computers, mobile phones, photography, video, sound recording, digital storytelling and design since 1998.

For the last two years, I have pursued an interest in Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC), learning by working closely with specialists, participants and practical, hands-on learning with AAC devices.

I am very good at working with participants to learn about their past experiences with technology and liaising with specialists to design and implement customised plans for integrating technology into their daily lives for communication and entertainment.

Computer, phone and tablet skills

I am highly skilled at all common home and workplace technologies, software and hardware.

I support participants to learn and develop practical skills in using computers, phones, tablets, apps and software to help improve communication, organisation and build workplace skills.

Online publishing

I am highly experienced in the use of a wide range of publishing platforms and I help participants learn how to safely and effectively share their art, photos, stories and videos.

This can be publicly using platforms such as Facebook and Youtube or privately just for families and friends.

I am an expert in the use of social media and work with participants, families, carers and support organisation to fine-tune privacy and sharing settings to meet desired needs and adhere to laws. Procedures and protocols.

Online safety

I am a whizz at social media and I like to support participants, families and support workers in ways to stay safe online and keep an eye out for each other.

I have a lot of experience in looking at how people use social media, identifying the risks and providing education and training that supports participants to be online safely.

I am also very practised at setting up procedures, tools and methods for using equipment such as phones, tablets and computers to make them the user friendly, safe and secure and training families, carers and support workers.
