Summary

Hard- working and passionate young Social Worker whose passion lies in making the lives of ordinary Papua New Guineans better, even in the tiniest of ways- especially within the mine impacted communities. This is simply because I believe that change starts with me- I will not complain about how the government, service providers, and project owners fail to provide basic services to these people, instead, I will ask myself “I have the opportunity to help these people, what am I going to do about it?”
