She/They – Practice Nurse
Hi! I am Tomi. I have been working as a nurse for almost a decade, I have worked in many nursing roles and sectors in Melbourne, with most of my experience caring for elderly Australians. I am a passionate and caring person, and cherish the way nursing allows me to live my life through my passion.
I am a proud queer and trans Aussie, and have dedicated quite alot of myself outside of my work as a nurse to promote the health and well being of the LGBTQIA+ community. Alongside nursing, I am a social worker and academic researcher, and I have tried to do my part through these avenues to make life fairer and healthcare more accessible for trans Australians. As an activist I try to leverage my privilege in ways that help those who haven’t had the same opposites to thrive as I have.
When I am not working I am most likely to be found snugged up on the couch with my cat and a good book or film, planning my next travel adventure, or making a mess in the kitchen.
