About me

I’m a project manager with a background in psychology, criminology and leadership, and I’ve worked across a few different areas, from mental health and youth projects to the criminal justice sector.

I enjoy fixing broken systems through bringing structure, figuring out what needs to be done, keeping people on track and making sure tasks actually get finished. I’m organised, reliable and good at dealing with people, but I’m also quite creative, a people’s person and enjoy finding better or more interesting ways of doing things.

I’m comfortable working independently, managing my own time and juggling different tasks, as I have done so before in my previous work experience, which is why remote work really appeals to me. I’m open to a range of opportunities, particularly project coordination, research, administration, operations, community or client support, and creative projects.
