Nicola, ACT lawyer

I joined Your Story Disability Legal Support in June 2022. I studied a combined law and social work degree in Sydney and was previously a disability support worker.

In 2020, I moved to Canberra to work in family law at the Attorney-General’s Department. I have since embraced the Canberra lifestyle and you will often find me riding my bike, avoiding magpies and wearing a puffer jacket.

My older sister has an intellectual disability. I love being around her and I want her to always be safe, cared for and happy.

I’m excited to be part of an organisation that is supporting people in the disability community to share their stories and advocate for systemic change.
