Summary

25 years of experience in the Research Industry has been an incredible journey both professionally and personally. I started my professional journey as a research nurse at the Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne working on a very successful Rotavirus Clinical Trial. My role progressed to a Study Coordinator at the Austin Hospital Stroke Foundation and then a natural progression to a Study Monitor then Study Manager and now to my current role as a Senior Site Relationship Manager. My skills and knowledge are varied, working in site facing roles within the hospital, to working with pharmaceutical companies and clinical research organisations.

My leadership within all of my positions has allowed me to play a critical role in driving success and growth in all areas of research.
