Summary
I'm a dedicated Aboriginal student nurse currently in my final year of a Bachelor of Nursing at the Queensland University of Technology. I have a strong passion for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health and I have an interest in specialising in emergency and remote nursing. I'm currently an Indigenous Cadet at the Queensland Children's Hospital working in the Queensland Specialist Immunisation Service (QSIS) and Medical Day Unit (5B). I'm an enthusiastic team player who is committed to lifelong learning, working collaboratively, and seeking growth in the healthcare industry.
