My life spiralled out of control almost a year ago and I lost everything. In the space of a month, I'd gone from being employed as a manager to homeless sleeping in a park. I've spent the last 8 months rebuilding my life, and it's been tough. Building my life back up and focusing on the future has been the making of me.
I'd love to return to warehouse work, I've been in the industry for over 12 years and have lots of experience. I've previously worked as a manager, and I loved being in the role. My favourite thing was being able to equip people with the tools and skills they needed to succeed. I've worked my up from the floor to a management level so I really do care about my team's progression too as I know what it feels like to have someone take a chance on you.
I love seeing other people happy, and in the future, I'm just focusing on creating a stable life for my kids. I want build a life where I can afford to buy them all the presents they want, but also spend time with them. I'm so grateful for the support that Beam is giving me, the fact that people actually want to help me makes me lost for words. It's a nice reminder of how beautiful human beings are, and I hope I can get to a point where I can give back to others in the future.
