Summary
I am a proud Indigenous woman with connections to the Djugun people, who grew up in Derby in the West Kimberley Region. I am a third-year medical student completing her Doctor of Medicine at the University of Notre Dame Australia, whilst participating in Rural Clinical School placement in Kununurra for the year 2023. I am a motivated individual with strong work ethic and resilience who is seeking financial support whilst I complete my studies. I hope through this financial support, financial stress can be alleviated .This will not only support me in my studies and but in my overall wellbeing, so that I can be the better student and ultimately the best Doctor the wider community.
