Di has a Bachelor of Education in Early Childhood and Primary Education and has dedicated over three decades to various roles, including teaching, lecturing, training, managing, and working as a medical receptionist.
As a mother to four children, Di’s personal experiences have deepened her empathy and compassion, particularly in navigating the complexities associated with profound disability and PTSD within her family. These challenges have honed her ability to connect with and support children and young adults facing similar hurdles.
In her spare time, Di is deeply committed to giving back to the community. She volunteers for charities, finds solace in the tranquility of the beach, and maintains her well-being through Pilates, travel and cherishing moments with friends and family.
