  • Description

    I lead a simple quiet life on a farm in South Australia with my husband and eldest adult son. I have mostly worked with youth, their education and wellbeing in schools for employment. I enjoy meeting new people of all ages and having conversations about self-exploration and discovery. I appreciate learning wisdoms from indigenous people and their cultures, especially of places I visit. Exploring nature, reading, listening to music and various art forms are my leisure activities.

  • More details about your skills

    My main employment has been working with vulnerable youth and helping them find direction, set goals, apply for documentation/ licences and help them learn more through schooling and training. This involved communicating with families and students, setting learning programs, running to a schedule, note taking, managing a budget, and data entry.

    I have raised a family on a cereals and beef farm for 35 years with my husband, so I am capable of doing housekeeping jobs such as food prep, cleaning, laundry, along with a range of manual labouring, driving basic machinery, fixing fences and fixtures. Although I can herd cattle with vehicles, I am not confident with them on foot. Our farm was organic/biodynamic for 20 year so understand that system.We have had dogs and cats as pets that I am very comfortable with. I do the book keeping and administration work for the farm business too.

    We built an house extension and do repairs to our homes , so can do things such as painting and plastering.

    I was employed in hospitality jobs through periods of study so am confident with serving food, expresso coffees and alcohol. I have a current Responsible Service of Alcohol (RSA) certificate in my state and have done volunteer bar work in the past few years at a festival and at our local community centre.
