Lucas Li is an enthusiastic newcomer to the healthcare sector, undergoing a career change from the film industry to youth services. He retains his passion for creative expression through designing games and running RPG sessions.
Lucas has a long history of community engagement and firmly believes in the importance of community building and social integration. He finds great reward in his current work as a support worker on www.mable.com.au with multiple clients with ASD and looks forward to growing his experience in this field.
Lucas now works for Banyule Council as a Youth Access Worker (after Game Therapist Michael Thorburn organised his student placement in their Banyule Youth Dungeons and Dragons program). Lucas is passionate about working with young people to further their potential.
Lucas recognises the great potential for games as a safe space for exploring ideas and simulating experiences that can be applied in real world problem solving. His experience as a professional storyteller has made him a natural game master for RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons, and he is currently working on his own RPG system which emphasises narrative, cooperative play and creative problem solving over brute combat. Occasionally though, combat can be fun, and Lucas has an extensive collection of war-games and board games.
