My passion is very much mental health and working as a community to keep mental health a top priority in everyone’s lives regardless of having a diagnosed condition. Mental health is an intrinsic part of us as human being
s and my desire is to work towards everyone being able to live their life to their optimum. I also have a keen interest in Military Psychology and the link and impact of cross cultural transition from military to ‘Civvy Street’ of which both my undergraduate and postgraduate studies are based.
