23.01.2022 #MeetUsMonday - Meet our new NDIS Service Coordinator joining our Toowoomba/Ipswich team! Andrea has extensive experience in the disability services sector, most recently as an NDIS Coordinator in community care. After working in various community care roles, Andrea decided to shift to MS Queensland to help people living with progressive neurological diseases navigate the NDIS. Andrea was attracted to MS Queensland because of our reputation for being customer centric, whic...h aligned with her values. Andrea is passionate about helping people overcome their challenges to live their life to the fullest. I want the focus to be on life, not their condition. She enjoys building relationships with her customers and has an uncanny ability to understand their needs, so she can build their capacity for personal choice. Outside of work Andrea enjoys reading and listening to books as well as spending time with pets including 3 dogs, 2 cats and the wildlife that live on her Toowoomba acreage.
