Inclusion & Diversity Representative & Admin Support
Nyssa has lived with multiple chronic illnesses for over 20 years. She is really grateful that she can use these experiences in her work life (because she never thought she could work!) to positively contribute to her role. Nyssa uses her personal experiences with the NDIS to act as a bridge to support STRIDE in understanding the perspective of the participant. She is very passionate about the disability sector and is really proud to be supporting Stride Support Services in their person-centred service.
