Meet the moderators

Meet the moderators

Hi everyone,

As our team of moderators grow, I thought it would be good timing to create this thread so you can get to know us.

SANE Australia collaborates with organisations around Australia to provide this space. Forum moderators come from SANE and the partner organisations, bringing a variety of experiences, knowledge and backgrounds.

For those who aren't too sure what moderators do, the best way to sum it up is that we aim to ensure the community is a welcoming, productive and safe place for all.

You may see us around the place time to time. Often we lurk behind the scenes (that's not as creepy as it sounds!). We want to allow space for peers to connect with each other and believe in the power of peer to peer support.

So I will start with my introduction

I'm Nik and I'm the Community Manager at SANE Australia. My favourite colour is yellow, favourite food is avocado and could happily live on a tropical island (as long as I could watch all Manly Sea Eagles games each season).

What drives me to do this job is my strong belief in peer support and the benefits it has, and also the role technology can play in improving mental health and wellbeing.

Also.. just so you're aware.. that's not me in my profile pic

So - over to the other moderators. Perhaps you could share what organisation you're from and some random facts about yourself

Nik

Re: Meet the moderators

Hi all

I am a new moderator from Flourish Australia, and I identify as a peer worker. The fluffy munchkin in the photo is Mia, my adopted furbaby daughter who we rescued from the streets. My favourite food is chinese dumplings and yum cha, but almost anything filled with carbs or sugar will tempt me I like to play netball and go to the gym to work it all off, and I enjoy cooking, mostly turning not-so-healthy foods into somewhat-healthy foods haha.

Great to see such positive support in the forums so far

Hi Everyone,

I'm a new Moderator here on the Forums and I am really glad to have joined this community. I'm a strong believer in the power of peer support.

I have just started working for SANE in the Help Centre.

I love spending time outdoors with animals and my favourite food is pasta!

I'm looking forward to getting to know you all.

Take care of yourselves,

River9
