Director & Founder

Tina Fish holds a Master of Business Administration (MBA) with a specialisation in Leadership and Management. Her academic background, combined with over a decade of lived and professional experience in the disability and mental health sector, forms the foundation of her leadership at Melbourne Support Ability.

Tina leads the team with a clear vision: to provide genuinely personal, consistent, and respectful support.

She is deeply committed to building a service that puts relationships first. She understands that trust takes time, and that real support means listening, showing up, and adapting to each person’s needs, not fitting them into a system.

Known for her calm presence, practical mindset, and strong values, Tina oversees operations, supports the team, and stays closely involved with participants and families.

She believes that the best care comes from people who care—and she works hard to make sure her team feels supported, so they can do the same for others.

Disability Support Worker

Ryan is a 38 year old parent of three and a long time small business owner and Support Worker, Ryan brings a calm, thoughtful, and real-world approach to support placing connection, trust, and consistency at the centre of his work.

Rather than a clinical or one-size-fits-all model, Ryan believes support should feel human. That’s why Melbourne Support Ability focuses on matching the right support worker with the right participant, and only offers services the team can deliver with integrity and care.

Ryan’s background in film and TV lighting gives him a unique edge in problem-solving, logistics, and working behind the scenes with calm under pressure, skills that transfer directly into his work in disability support. He understands how important it is for participants and families to feel safe, respected, and listened to.

Above all, Ryan is passionate about creating a service that treats every person as an individual, not a number. Melbourne Support Ability is about showing up with presence, care, and consistency every time.
