Support Coordination Lead

    Hi all! My names Joshua. Brand new Support Coordinator jumping into the Chosen Family team.


     Little bit about me I have constantly lived abroad due to family and have bounced between Australia and Canada on numerous occasions and now calling Sydney home.


    I have a big heart for kids and teens and have work extensively in areas such as Youth Work, Child Protection and school programs.


    Prior to moving to Sydney my family and I are kinship carers and have been since 2022. I moved into the Support Coordination space to help make a bigger impact on the community and aid those who may or may not have a support network readily available to them.


    I pride myself on rapport I hold with my clients and team and strive to make my work as fun as possible and to make my clients enjoy the time they have with me.


    Outside of work I’m your typical gym junkie, I gym 6x a week and often do so with my partner or mates.


    I am a big video game nerd and love all things JRPG and RPG so please feel free to chat about those as I could easily chat for hours about video games. If I can say so I am a mad cook, love to experiment and try new ingredients, cuisines, and cooking styles. Unfortunately they don’t always fit into my daily macros but hey if it tastes good then go for it.
