Luke Doherty

General Manager- Rubix Support

“Nicole is nothing short of amazing! While she has 20 plus years experience in Disability support services she is now a wealth of knowledge in the areas of NDIS SDA and SIL. What inspires me most about Nicole is her passion of supporting people to be living in the home they choose, out of hospital and in to their own home! Nicole’s business is successful because she is truly someone who is in the business because she cares about people.

So if you are looking for SDA options for yourself or a family member or even an investor wanting to know more. Nicole is the lady you need to connect with, you wont be disappointed! It’s been a honor to be a part of her journey of the past 2 decades.”
