Tell us about your career path so far. I just graduated from Macquarie University with a Psychology degree and this is my first job in my career.
What inspires you to go to work every day? The fact I am working towards my future and of course the satisfaction of helping people.
What are your biggest career achievements? Because of the fact that I just started my career after working at Coles during my studies, I am not able to say I achieved something yet. But if we were to talk about sports, I could talk you through the marathon I did.
