“I am deeply committed to SisterWorks’ mission, values, and cause. My personal values align closely with the organization’s commitment to providing equal employment opportunities for women from diverse backgrounds in Australia. I am motivated to foster the professional growth and development of our Sisters, staff, and volunteers. As a migrant woman myself, I understand firsthand the challenges faced by the CALD community in securing employment. SisterWorks plays a vital role in empowering women and boosting their confidence to achieve economic independence.”
