Summary

With a diverse background in marketing, football coaching, and crisis care, I bring a unique blend of communication, resilience, and empathy to everything I do. I'm currently working towards a Level 3 qualification in Counselling Skills, which is deepening my understanding of emotional wellbeing and effective support strategies.


Residential childcare is a field I've long felt drawn to, and I’m fully committed to building a meaningful career in this area. I believe every young person deserves stability, encouragement, and a safe environment in which to grow, and I’m passionate about being a consistent, positive presence in their lives. My past experiences have equipped me with patience, adaptability, and a calm approach under pressure, qualities I believe are essential for supporting children and young people through life’s challenges.
