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

Not at the moment @Zoe7 I've moved into a small space with no outdoor area so I think I'll need to wait until I have a bit more room. I used to do a bit of wildlife caring and lived with both a cat and a few rats before I moved house a few years back. I miss having animal friends at home 🐀 It does make me extra enthusiastic about patting any cats or dogs I see around town though 🐕 How's your little dog doing? (hopefully I've remembered that correctly!)

Toby is doing well @Former-Member He has become a bit of a brat - but that is entiirely my fault - I let him get away with too much lol

I also have a cat - we call her Cat here - she is a gorgeous little puddy tat but does not get as much snuggle time as Toby - he kind doesn't leave my side long enough for her to snuggle with me lol
