Hi, I am Jodi.
JP Trusted Advisor - Director and Specialist Support Coordinator
I founded JP Trusted Advisor in 2019, building on my career spanning over 30 years in the disability sector while bringing a lifetime of dedication and passion to my role not only as Director, but as a Specialist Support Coordinator. Recognising a need in the market, I established JPTA to provide independent support coordination as well as consultancy services. My aim has always been to create an environment where people with disability can access high quality, compassionate support to help enable our clients to live fulfilling lives.
I have a Diploma in Human Services, as well as a Bachelor of Social Science, specialising in Human Services and Disability, coupled with a strong NDIS knowledge base. Over the course of my career, I have worked as a Support Worker, Employment Welfare Officer, Coordinator of Community Access, a Manager of Accommodation Services and a Manager of Service Development - each role shaping my understanding and expertise.
“Having worked in the disability sector my entire life, my passion lies in supporting people with disability to live their best lives while having access to all services available to them.”
Specialising in accommodation services and working with clients who have complex support needs, I prioritise transparency, respect, collaboration and open communication.
I love working with a diverse group of people, building lasting relationships and helping our clients and their families and carers navigate the NDIS, while they achieve their goals. I also value our partnerships with a wide network of service providers, ensuring each client has access to the resources they need. I feel very fortunate to be able to do that. I do - it really is incredibly rewarding work.
As a Specialist Support Coordinator, I maintain a small caseload, allowing me to stay connected to the work I love, while also guiding our team as JPTA’s Director. I am committed to ensuring our team member bring the skills, dedication and empathy needed to help make a real difference in a person’s life. From handpicking staff to providing continuous training and supervision, I believe in fostering a supportive environment which allows each team member to succeed, which in turn benefits our clients.
When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my three adult children and our family puppy. I am an active committee member for our local football club and I am a big fan of watching the AFL. To unwind, I like to go to the gym, go for long walks and watch crime shows on Netflix.
