Hi, I am Audrey and here is a little bit about me:  

 

I am an Actor, Writer and Film maker and over the years, I have been fortunate to have had many opportunities in the creative Arts.  My passion is to promote inclusion and diversity by public speaking and in my creative work which includes story writing and film making and sharing my experience as a person living with an intellectual disability.   

 

I am currently a proud Ambassador for Human Rights Australia (IncludeAbility) https://includeability.gov.au/ambassador-profile-audrey-oconnor and I am also an Ambassador for Bus Stop Films   Advocacy - Bus Stop Films.  I work on a Committee with GigBuddies Australia who organize social activities for people with intellectual disability.  

 

I work with Down Syndrome Australia in their Lead and Learn Group to contribute an understanding of what it is like to have an intellectual disability and get better health support for other people like me.  I have just been appointed Inclusion Support Officer with Down Syndrome NSW.  

 

Other things I am interested in are dancing and karaoke.  I also enjoy working with my Personal Trainer at the gym and I have a green belt in Karate.
