Summary

I have been working within the industry for almost a decade. During that time I have always wanted to expand my skills and scope of practice, leading me to head back to university.


My study, for the most part is now coming to a close and I am looking to move back to my beloved Victoria.

I am seeking a practice that has a passion for excellence. I often stand out given my above average work ethic and my obsession with patient care, a phenomenon that is often lost.


Many new grads are seeking mentorship, this is not at the forefront of my search, as I will endeavour to embark on as much CPD as possible. Being in a place where open clinical discussion can take place however is of great importance to myself as I believe you can learn so much from your colleagues.
