A few words about me

I love learning new things and am always curious about people and the world around me. I enjoy sitting in a coffee shop with a good book, watching the world go by and, of course, people-watching. I find it fascinating how everyone has their own story to tell.

What does your role at Baobab involve?

My role involves working with young people, understanding their individual needs and supporting them through difficult times. I enjoy working alongside others to help make sure young people feel listened to and supported.

What is your desert island book or music?

One book definitely wouldn’t be enough! I’d need a whole library to keep me going, along with a good playlist.

What three words would you use to describe Baobab?

Supportive, welcoming and compassionate.
