Hello, I’m Ruby!

I completed my Master’s in Occupational Therapy at Swinburne University in Melbourne, Australia. Before commencing my studies, I spent a decade working across project and case management roles in child and youth mental health, health promotion, sport and community development. Most recently, I supported young people experiencing mental health challenges to develop their self-confidence, independence and everyday living skills.

I am passionate about supporting children and young people to feel confident, empowered and capable in their everyday lives, and to participate in the activities and experiences that are meaningful to them.

The Words First value that resonates with me most is open communication and collaboration. I believe the best outcomes are achieved when we communicate openly and honestly, share ideas and work collaboratively as a team. I really value learning from others and bringing different perspectives together to provide the best possible support for children and their families.

Outside of work, you will see me running or participating in a team sport e.g., Australian Rules Football, travelling, reading, going to see live music, and spending time outdoors and in nature. If you asked my best friend to describe me, I think they’d say I’m fun, curious and empathetic!
