As a former classroom teacher, I have seen time and time again the gaps that exist in young people’s knowledge and confidence when it comes to sexuality, relationships, and recognising and attending to their own emotional needs. By working with Body Safety Australia, I can help address these gaps in a meaningful way.
My background is in education, psychology, sociology and public health. I have also trained as an Auslan interpreter, allowing me to give informational access to a community of people who all too often miss out on it.
Through fun, student-centred discussion based in critical thinking and reflection, I aim to empower young people to understand and protect themselves and others.
