Tyler the Rockstar: A Story of Resilience and Determination

Finding a great job fit

At HDNWA, we’re passionate about helping individuals find meaningful employment and nothing brings us more joy than celebrating the inspiring journeys of those we work alongside.

Today, we’re proud to share the story of Tyler, a remarkable individual whose resilience, compassion, and determination have truly left a mark on everyone who’s had the pleasure of working with him.

We first connected with Tyler in mid-2024 through his service provider. From our very first meeting, it was clear that he was something special. During the screening process, Tyler’s empathy, energy, and genuine desire to contribute stood out immediately.

Tyler opened up about a deeply personal chapter of his life , stepping away from the workforce to care for his mother as she underwent cancer treatment. Throughout this incredibly challenging time, Tyler’s priority was providing unwavering support and love to ensure his mother had everything she needed.

With her health now improving and treatment progressing positively, Tyler felt ready to return to work and rebuild his career.

We were honoured to help him take that next step by referring him to a role as a kitchen steward at RAC Arena, one of Perth’s premier event venues. It didn’t take long for Tyler to find his rhythm. His strong work ethic, infectious enthusiasm, and team spirit quickly made him a valued member of the crew.

Now, more than six months into his role, Tyler continues to thrive. He’s told us how much he enjoys the fast-paced environment, the camaraderie of the team, and the pride he feels being part of such a dynamic and respected organisation.

Tyler’s story is a powerful reminder of what it means to persevere. Despite personal hardships, he never lost sight of his goals. His journey speaks to the power of second chances, the importance of family, and the strength of the human spirit.

To Tyler, thank you. You inspire us every day, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for you.

Keep shining, Rockstar.
